[LARTC] routed vs. gated

[Carol Anne Ogdin <caogdin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Can anybody help me figure out whether I should be using gated rather than routed?

I have two DSLs connected to my firewall/router (RH 7.3), running routed, with load balancing.  I'm trying to figure out whether gated-3.6 (the last open-source version) is better for my system, but I can't find enough out about it to decide whether to move to it (or something even better).  I'm revisiting the architecture of my entire system, aiming at higher reliability and automatic rerouting if one of the DSLs is down.

Any advice would be most appreciated.
