Hi all,

I just pushed Link Balancer to FireHOL github repo.

Link Balancer allows you to balance multiple internet providers, or
any multi-path VPN. It also includes Policy Based Routing to allow you
define how your multiple gateways may be used.

You can find a short documentation here:
https://github.com/ktsaou/firehol/wiki/Link-Balancer

At the documentation you will find information an example for
balancing 3 upstream internet providers and a dual-path VPN, at the
same time.

I already use it at my office for balancing 6 internet providers, one
of which has provided to us 3 independent links (so 8 internet links
in total). At the same time it balances our data center link which
consists of a dedicated fiber link and a few VPNs over the upstream
internet providers.

Check it. Is really simple to do it...

I would very pleased to hear from you about it.

Keep in mind that although it has IPv6 support, it is not tested under
IPv6. It should work though. So please let me know if you find any
problems...

Happy New Year!

Costa
