As I understood you have two connections and one is not used until the second comes down? If yes try to add script to cron which chekcs if connection is up (ping your's provider router) and if it's down simply it shoud up the second interface and add new default route : ifconfig ...... route del default route add default ....... Is it what you want ? > I'm still trying to figure out this problem, I appreciate any suggestions... > > What I'd like to do is have a second default gateway path that never gets taken unless the first one goes into the "dead" state. I have installed Julian's patch and it works great for loadballanced connections using the nexthop code, but I would like to setup the second default route to be the failover only if the first one becomes unavailable. Is this possible? How might I do this? > > regards, > joshua > _______________________________________________ > LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/ _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
