Yes. Just list multiple IP addresses, one per line. > If so is it possible to 'wieght' them so one is prefferred over the other? No. > If I have to do it manually, will specifying a larger number of hops on > the lesser prefferred router do the job? No. The kernel knows nothing of hop counts or weights. Those are routing protocol issues -- if you have a preference, then use a routing daemon to implement it. The kernel is just a forwarding base, not a policy engine. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677 _______________________________________________ networking-discuss mailing list [email protected]
