Forgive me if this is off-topic. How could I force a packet to go out through an interface, despite the default route?
Suppose I have two interfaces connected to the internet: 1) rl0 (real.ip.no.1) ---> ISP x 2) rl1 (real.ip.no.2) ---> ISP y ISP y is just a backup link. ISP x is the working link. Don´t want to load-balance them. Use 2) ONLY if 1) is out. Suppose 1) is down. I switch to 2). But I have to keep testing 1) to see when it comes back up. How could I force a packet (ping maybe?) to www.whatever.com through 1), despite the default route being 2) ? I am aready binding the ping packet to the IP I want but that´s not enough. any suggestions? thanks, -- //| //|| // | // || -//--//---|| ARIO LOBO // // || --------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ipad.com.br _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
