Hello In the LARCT how-to subitem: 4.2.2. Load balancing the following phrase says: "" Instead of choosing one of the two providers as your default route, you now set up the default route to be a multipath route. In the default kernel this will balance routes over the two providers. It is done as follows (once more building on the example in the section on split-access): ip route add default scope global nexthop via $P1 dev $IF1 weight 1 \ nexthop via $P2 dev $IF2 weight 1 "" What does it mean? It will split the traffic? Eg. some traffic goes through provider1 and some through provider2 ?? Or if provider1 goes down then the packet will go through provider2? I am asking it because I want to create an alternate default gateway when my ADSL link had down. Do you suggest any other solution? Thanks!
