Anyone know a way of dynamically utilizing two default routes(gateways
to the internet) on a NetBSD box without the use of BGP or some other
dynamic routing protocol. What I'm looking to do is load balance (just
a simple 50/50 algorithm is fine) and be fault tolerant (use only 1 when
the other is down).
I'm running a small office network, and we happen to have two different
ethernet connections to the internet from different providers. The
NetBSD box is acting as a firewall/NAT router. Not running routed or gated.
Thanks in advance,
Amir
