I'm not among them, but a few people are using LEAF and the Zebra suite to run WAN routing. Fail-over has been done by a few others with the 2.2.x kernels with custom fail-over scripts. Sans any better help, these links may lead you in the right direction: http://www.zebra.org/ http://www.monkeynoodle.org/lrp/LRP-Load-Balancing-HOWTO.html The WAN routing and multiple outgoing interfaces should be easier to do with a 2.4.x kernel (Bering image), but again, I haven't attempted this.
