I have question about Linux routing I guess. I want to create a backup
connection to the internet. I will have a DSL line to the internet and
a dialup modem for backup. What I want to do is put a higher metric on
the dial up line. How will it know to switch over to the dial up line
when the Ethernet line is down. Which distribution will work for this,
I will have two Ethernet cards and a modems. Do I need a default route
for my main internet provider. Thanks Mike D
Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control guide should have what you
need. There is extensive info about this in their mailing list archive
as well.
