First, this is a thread for net, not stable. Second, you may need a route daemon for this. ospf is a well known canditate where convergence in case of lost link is a must. Also, you can monitor link status and do the switch from a daemon. Userland ppp have more or less this. -- josemi _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
