how to do iptables fault tolerance ?


I have two Internet connections which is connected to different ISP.

I want to do a fault tolerance on the two connections such that either one of them failed, another one can pick up the work to handle internet traffic between the Internet and local net users

How to implement this in linux ? is it possible ?

What you need to do is to modify your routing table, so there are two paths to 0.0.0.0, each one using a different ethernet card as "iface"

read "man route" for that
