Can this be done for *both* upstream and downstream routing? I mean: we have two links, but most of the services we have (web, mail, etc) use only one link so that when it bogs down -- which was fairly recently -- we end up not having any service at all. It would be okay if it was just a matter of switching over to the other link, but we're constrained by our current IP address space allocation. My admittedly less-informed, semi-harebrained idea was to get *another* IP block that is routable through both providers, who would then both announce routes to us (BGP are for biggies, I think, those with /19 or higher, but also possible with 'small fry' like us =D). Hopefully, when one connection gets cut off, our routes are still up on the other. If this has been done, how was it done using Linux routing? TIA. -- Ian Dexter R.
