load balancing default routes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I read RFC 1122 section 3.3.1.* on default gateway selection.  It implies 
that default routes are for failover, not for load-balancing.  And linux 
follows this.  As long as one of the default gateways is reachable, linux 
will send traffic to that one only.

So, does anyone know of a way to get linux to load balance default routes?  
It would be best if the loadbalancing was sticky at layer 4, but not required.

Thanks,
Mordy
