networking - Ubuntu Server 12.10 3g modem connection established but not used -
our server has lan (dhcp) connection internal network , 3g (via usb dongle) internet. internet access should not exposed internal network , vice versa.
to able use 3g modem followed 2 manuals:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/143989/3g-usb-modem-not-working-in-12-04
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-766982.html
now when wvdial provider_name
connection established. interface , has ip, dns etc setup according ifconfig
however whenever try ping public internet server still trying use lan network , not ppp interface.
how can solve it?
ps: i've tried following - put auto ppp0 iface ppp0 inet wvdial
/etc/network/interfaces
before auto eth0
, on start brings ppp0 interface up, unplug cable lan , restart, after works fine, if restart server lan cable plugged in, still using eth0
gateway default!
the output ip route show
:
default via 192.168.1.1 dev p2p1 10.64.64.64 dev ppp0 proto kernel scope link src 172.30.50.98 192.168.1.0/24 dev p2p1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.109
i know there way use route2 load balance between interfaces, in manuals find use static ip , dns, whereas in case of 3g connection not possible do...
ok, found it. command setting default routing interface is:
$ route add default dev %interface_name%
the issue setting ppp interface default should done after interface can take time. solution created upstart task runs after else done , sets default interface
