I've attached two files, my ifstated.conf and manage-routes.sh, a script I wrote for adding and removing routes based on the current state from ifstated. >From your example, you cannot ping google to check if a specified WAN link is up while the gateway for that specific link is not in the routing table because it will be unreachable (Especially when both links are down, ifstated will have no way of pinging google and they will remain down.) That is why I have chosen to ping the gateways of my WAN links instead. I have been toying around with the idea of a multistage check that first pings the gateway, then google but I have not tested it yet. Hope this helps. -- Justin Jereza LPIC-2 [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/octet-stream which had a name of ifstated.conf] [demime 1.01d removed an attachment of type application/x-sh which had a name of manage-routes.sh]
