FoS (RedHat) works for the failover and that doesn't sound like what you're doing.
It sounds like you need a routing protocol to determine which route works and is preferred. There may be a way around this; I'd love to know ...

I am setting up a LINUX server (kernel 2.4.9-21smp) and need it to be able to failover from one default gateway to another on the same subnet. For example: This server is 192.168.1.10. The two valid gateways, 192.168.1.1 & 192.168.1.2. I need failover so that if one gateway is down, the server will use the other. The two gateways are Cisco routers, not LINUX servers. The failover does not work when both routes are created with "route add ..." With metrics either equal or weighted, only the first route is used. I think I need to use iproute2 but I have not found an example of my situation. Any suggestions? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
