I'm using:
# shorewall version
4.5.4.2
with swping. The failover works fine. If i loose a provider, all new traffic is
redirected to
the remaining connection and when the provider comes back up, new connections
are
routed back through both providers.
The problems are on connections that are "forced" using rtrules to a specific
provider. I
would like to have them failover to the remaining provider when the main on
fails and
back again to that provider when it's online.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Nuno Fernandes
