To achieve the goal of primary path only, you can heavily weight one
path over the other, some traffic will still spill into the other, you
can remove the equalize parameter to disable this behaviour,
if you take a look at the linux advanced routing howto there are lots of
options to play with..

You can add a second route and weight it as follows:
ip route add equalize 192.168.2.0/24 scope global nexthop via
192.168.0.254 dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via 192.168.0.250 dev eth0
weight 1
This assumes that:
both gateways are connected to eth0 on your linux box
You want equal traffic weight down each gateway to the remote network....

Hi ,
I have a network to reach which is *MailScanner warning: numerical
links are often malicious:* 192.168.2.0/24 <http://192.168.2.0/24>.
It is a branch of the company. I have currently added a route to that
network via one gateway ( *MailScanner warning: numerical links are
often malicious:* 192.168.0.254 <http://192.168.0.254>) in following
way.
ip route add *MailScanner warning: numerical links are often
malicious:* 192.168.2.0/24 <http://192.168.2.0/24> via *MailScanner
warning: numerical links are often malicious:* 192.168.0.254
<http://192.168.0.254>
Now, We got another gateway which is *MailScanner warning: numerical
links are often malicious:* 192.168.0.250 <http://192.168.0.250>. Now
I want to add a route to the same network which is *MailScanner
warning: numerical links are often malicious:* 192.168.2.0/24
<http://192.168.2.0/24> via this gateway (*MailScanner warning:
numerical links are often malicious:* 192.168.0.250
<http://192.168.0.250>) as well.
Then I will have 2 paths to the same network. One path should be
primary and the other path should be backup. everything should go
via primary path.
if the primary path goes down, the backup path should be active.
That is the purpose of doing this.
Pls let me know whether it is possible or not?
if possible, How can I achieve this goal.
