Does Mikrotik have the "dead gateway" feature? Basically it pings the gateway on the interface and if it fails only uses the remaining interface for new sessions? I am not looking for a solution that uses dynamic routing protocols such as BGP or OSPF. I am looking for something more geared to the small office market where the customer may have two connections not necessarily both connected with us and want some simple load balancing/failover.
