I'm looking at setting up a system with two upstream Internet routers,
the second to be used only if the first fails.
There's a lot of information on using Julian's patches (the nano
document), and I'm still digesting all of it. It looks pretty slick,
and I think it will work...but I don't see if I can actually set up
multipath and have the kernel not use the second interface unless it has
to. It looks like I can only set weight and set up a percentage rule.
Am I missing something? Can I say "here are two routes, always use
route one unless you can't?"
Thanks,
Kevin
