Hello friends, The multi-provider structure seems to work fine when it's really being used for links to multiple ISP's of relatively stable quality. It's problematic when the ISP's are unstable (I am in Africa) mostly because failures aren't directly detectable: usually there is a break, or a major slowdown somewhere upstream in the ISP's network.
It has become very complicated because we also have several sites connected by links that aren't always reliable (OpenVPN tunnels over said unreliable ISP's; even our WiFi links go down sometimes). The cleanest solution seems to be to manually disable / enable providers as needed (or use a monitoring tool to do so). However the question: Is there a clean way to mark a provider so that it will NOT be enabled upon shorewall (re)start? I guess I could do it in an extension script but that is a bit of a hack. Input welcome!
