Although I tried this, and it doesn't work if the connection's dead between your NIC and the ISP, but the interface is still up. I unplugged my network cable, and did a ping after adding a line with two nexthops as above, and it didn't route through the second link at all. Then again, I might be doing something wrong. :) -- Adrian Chung (adrian at enfusion-group dot com) http://www.enfusion-group.com/~adrian GPG Fingerprint: C620 C8EA 86BA 79CC 384C E7BE A10C 353B 919D 1A17 [rogue.enfusion-group.com] 6:36pm up 56 days, 9:45, 3 users _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://ds9a.nl/2.4Routing/
