afaik, it just uses the normal routing table, you can't force a specific interface/nexthop. if that's correct, to have relayd check connectivity beyond the gateways, you'll need static routes (e.g. host 8.8.8.8 via connection A, 208.67.222.222 via connection B) and use those hosts as an indicator. > On 26/08/2010, at 9:10 AM, dontek wrote: >>>> I have managed a solution using traceroute that allows me to >>>> accomplish half of my goal.
