Hi
There,
I am also trying to
do the same for my network.
I have two links from different ISPs and I want to configure a failover and load balancing Linux router.
I have two links from different ISPs and I want to configure a failover and load balancing Linux router.
I am facing same
problem here, that how to detect link failure and let Linux box switch the
gateway.
I know it works when
the first gateway is physically down and not reachable. But what to do
if my link is up but there is problem at nexthop level and its not routing
packets to destination.
Please tell me if
this can be overcome by setting multipath routing.
Another way I can
think of doing this is to use a script which will check if the default route is
alive every 15 mins and if not it will make changes in routing table and route
the packets through different link.
I don't know if this
is the best way to do this. If any one know how to do this better please share.
If you guys thinks
this can work, lets help each other to write such scrip.
I am new to LARTC
and just now started learning it to solve my network
problems.
Please help me to
achieve this.
Thanks in
advance.
