Hi folks, The manpage for relayd.conf has this basic construct in it a couple of times :
table <service> { 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.2, 192.168.2.3 } table <fallback> disable { 10.1.5.1 retry 2 } redirect "www" { listen on www.example.com port 80 forward to <service> check http "/" code 200 forward to <fallback> check http "/" code 200 } And also has this to say about the "disable" attribute. disable The redirection is initially disabled. It can be later enabled through relayctl(8). What I don't understand from the given examples is how "<fallback>" above is getting re-enabled. It starts out with the table disabled - I get that. But then within the redirect we are basically saying (correct me if I am wrong) "always use <service> unless it is not availble, in which case use <fallback>" But I don't see anywhere that <fallback> was re-enabled so how can it be used? And I search through the manpage and don't see any mention of this. Does it automatically get re-enabled within the "redirect - forward"? And if that is the case, what was the point of starting it disabled in the first place? thanks, -Alan -- "Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV" - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"
