Dear list, Shorewall is running here with 2 ISP's: ISP1: corporate ADSL-line with fixed set of IP's ISP2: fast consumer-grade cable-connection with higher bandwidth All our main traffic (web, e-mail) is routed trough ISP1. Only for special purposes (frequent large ftp-transfers) ISP2 is used, configured trough tcrules.
ISP2 is not so reliable as ISP1 (duh) and they sometimes change the IP-address of our connection. When the link is down, I'd like all traffic to go trough ISP1 and alert myself by e-mail. If the IP-address of ISP2 changes, I'd like networking and shorewall to be restarted in order to initialize correct routing and firewall rules. Which tools can be used to monitor connections (up-down, IP) and act uppon changes? Any experience? I've been looking into Paul Gear's article but that doesn't really implement what I want. I understood shorewall can be loaded with a different set of configuration files, so I could create files for every scenario and load them with appropriate command lines. -- Best regards, Sjon Wijnolst ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
