Hi All,
I hope someone here could point me in the right direction being new to HAProxy. I have seen lots of configuration tutorials and guides on the actual config file which is fine and clear but may I ask how exactly would one go about setting up HAProxy on a physical ubuntu server then connecting it to the physical network if you only have a single IP subnet range of addresses? As hardly is there a guide showing this physical setup especially if you have a single IP address subnet.
Would anyone know how to do this with a single IP address subnet using a dedicated Ubuntu server as the HAproxy?
From the little I have seen there are guides on HAProxy inside pFsense and using transparent bridging but we are not wanting to use pFsense but rather a simple ubuntu server that has 2 physical network cards. (well there is four in there but two should be enough). the process of just assigning IP addresses to each interface and then connecting the ingress to the ISP circuit and then the egress interface to a switch does not work using IP addresses from the same/single subnet so would anyone have any direct experience on how best to do this?
Thanks
Fuquan
