It appears to work as described. In the presentation Reyk says relayd will check for upstream router availability but the conf example just pings the interface it appears. Sorry for all the babble but I am away from the location where I have 2 internet connections so I cannot test this stuff right now as I normally would. Link balancer doesn't mean link failover. Also, with multipath you already have your links balanced, provided they have the same route priority. You can extend the relayd funcionality through the use of scripts and achieve link failover. But, in this case, I believe that a state machine, such as ifstated, is better suited for the job. Also, it has network interface failure detection for free, withouth the need for icmp checks. Take a look at it and see if helps in your case. I've been using for years to balance/failover mulltiple links (not just two) with no issue. Of course it will have to interact with you pf rules, mostly through the use of anchors.
