Hi, I'm looking to setup a box mainly as a routing decision maker. I'll have 2 DSL lines, a primary and backup (to 2 different ISP's). I'd like traffic to go out the primary (faster and static IP's) when its up and have it automatically failover to the second DSL router when the first dies. I have a LAN -> watchguard -> linux box -> 2 DSL connections.
Actually, the linux box and the 2 DSL lines are on the same physical network. I'd setup the linux box with static routes to force pings through each of the DSL lines and when it notices one line down to force the default route through the backup. The trick I'm finding is getting it to forward packets from the watchguard back out the same interface to one of the DSL lines. I can't seem to get it to work like a router when there's only a single ethernet interface. I'm looking to make a transparent failover (and recovery) between the DSL lines. The watchguard can only take a single IP address for its default internet connection. Any help would be appreciated...
