How to route to a particular website
hi all, our network has two gateways - 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2 the 192.168.1.1 is normal broadband and the 192.168.1.2 is a 3g router we need to route all traffic for a particular website out of 192.168.1.2 - all other traffic for all other websites should route out of the 192.168.1.1 gateway we do no have a proxy server. How can this be done? Can something be done from the client or from the server? Thanks

Hi there, You might want to use Route Add command to add the route to the 192.168.1.2's interface. Eg, if the website is www.msn.com, and has the IP of 202.100.0.1, then please do this: 1. Open Command Prompt in elevated privilege. 2. Type in: route add 202.100.0.1 mask 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.2 metric 10 Do the above in the gateway server. Make sure that all your clients are pointing to this gateway server as the client's Gateway IP. Hope this helps.Jabez Gan [MVP] - http://www.msblog.org Contributing Author for: (Sybex) MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Infrastructure Configuration Study Guide: Exam 70-643

Hi, Thank you for the post. In addition, use command route add with -p parameter to make the route persistent across boots of the system. If you want to push it from server, you could configure Scheduled Task GPP or Logon/startup scripts GPO to run the route add script. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc725745.aspx http://www.windowsreference.com/windows-2000/add-static-routes-on-xp2000-via-win-2003-domain-policy/ If there are more inquiries on this issue, please feel free to let us know.
