Ali ix,

This is an application for rules, in the iproute package.  how you
select packets
for which internet connection can, best, be done by iptables using
firewall marks.

The trick is, you can have only one default gateway, unless you use the multiple
gateway patch, which may not be necessary for what you're talking about.

The real question is: how do you plan on classifying traffic?
    * different hosts (IP's) per gateway?
    * random selection of gateway, per TCP connection?
    * different types of traffic (Ports) per gateway?
    * certain domains (only) available on each gateway?
