Actually, adding the virtual gateway brings no physical change to your current network topology. It replaces current gateway only by changing ip settings.

Certainly you can test it before deploying in the main network. However, your diagram is too small to be recognized. Can you post a better diagram with larger size?

The Wan ip address of openwrt shall not be 192.168.1.1, just pick up a 192.168.1.x ip address, for example: 192.168.1.18(gateway shall be 192.168.1.1)



We have listed major steps in the blog article. Let me know which step confuses you.

Steps to check whether your virtual gateway are working: 1. Assign a static ip address in a client computer to check.(ie: 192.168.151.101, gateway: 192.168.151.1, dns: 8.8.8.8), if the network topology is correct, this client computer shall be able to access internet. 2. Use dhcp to obtain ip addre...

The theory of "virtual gateway" is to make this virtual gateway acting as the default gateway of your network. Though default ip range is "192.168.151.0", you can modify it to "10.x.x.x" in "lan interface" settings in openwrt web UI. Actually, there are two subnets in your network: 1). subnet betwee...

1. open "Detailed Reports" -> "Web Report" 2. "Reports Type" choose "Website Bandwidth Report" and click "Set Report Filter" 2. choose website and In, input *.netflix.com and save 3. run report, then you can see bandwidth only about netflix.com If you want to more specifically, you can change Users,...

This solution is a little complicated to setup, but it will not influence your internet speed:



Deploy WFilter with a virtual openwrt gateway

You intend to monitor smtp relay traffic.



We need to setup such a environment to test. I will let you know the result. It shall take no longer than 2 weeks.

This is the simplest solution:



Turn your PC into a Wi-Fi HotSpot to deploy WFilter

It depends on the email protocols you're using. If you use pop3 or imap to receive emails, wfilter can record it. Exchange server provides multiple connection protocols: 1. default exchange server protocol(encrypted and not supported by wfilter) 2. pop3 -- can be recorded 3. imap -- can be recorded ...
