I am about to add a second gateway routing entry to
a RH7.0 box, that appears to have a 2.2.16 kernel with equal cost multi path and
advanced routing options compiled into it. The box does not have rip, gated, or
any other route checking program running on it. The two links to the internet go
out through different ethernet cards, hubs, then gateway devices. The gateway
devices as far as I am concerned are dumb devices that dont know if they are
working or not.
How will the 2.2 kernel's routing tables and the
round robin affect of equal cost multi path handle the possibility of
either the gateway device, or some other upstream link failing?
Thanks in advance,
Jacob Anawalt
