[VETSEL Patrice]

Is there any linux distribution, with redundant internet connection
management by ip included ?

Thnx

Vetsel,

Depending on exactly what you are asking the answer is:

  - yes, iproute2 is available on almost all distributions
  - yes, you can manage redundant Internet connections with iproute2
  - no, it doesn't happen "out of the box"

In short, in order to take advantage of redundant Internet connections,
you'd need to read up on the LARTC howto [1] and possibly also apply
Julian's dead gateway detection patches [2].

But for us to give you a better answer, you'll need to tell us what you
really intend to do.  Your question is not clear enough for a complete
answer.  I'd suggest reading up on the above matters, and then asking
again if you do not find the answer you seek.
