Do you know what kernel version does, and can you point out the patch
for the driver ? Maybe we can massage it into a driver that works :)

You always have the constant beeping from the UPS, and the sound of the
inverters humming. Don't depend on the software to be real accurate on the
time remaining, as it is an estimate, and is not always very accurate.
I usually close what I am doing , saving if needed, as soon as I hear the
damn thing.. I will give it a minute or two, as the building I am in right now
has many short (5 to 10 second) sags every day.

When you create a route there is a metric number that does this. But you will
need a routing daemon running to use it. Another possibility would be to have
a script run every 5 minutes in cron that pings the first gateway, and if the
ping fails, change the route. It would also need logic to fix the first route
when the primary gateway starts answering pings again.

You can add a second route and weight it as follows:
ip route add equalize 192.168.2.0/24 scope global nexthop via
192.168.0.254 dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via 192.168.0.250 dev eth0 weight 1
This assumes that:
both gateways are connected to eth0 on your linux box
You want equal traffic weight down each gateway to the remote network....

To achieve the goal of primary path only, you can heavily weight one
path over the other, some traffic will still spill into the other, you
can remove the equalize parameter to disable this behaviour,
if you take a look at the linux advanced routing howto there are lots of
options to play with..

One possible solution is to enable one of the routing protocols on
your routers, instead of using static routing. For example BGP or
OSPF. The routers will than discover which paths to every of the
networks you have exist and will dynamically change routing rules
(instead of using static set of rules) as the network connections go
up and down. In the way you requested in your question. It might be
an overkill for simple network. But if your network becomes more
complex in the future, you'll have infrastructure to handle it.
Another advantage of using standard routing protocol is that they tend
to be platform independent. You want to replace that Cisco router
with Linux router or Linux router with Cisco router. Guess what, you
can use BGP or OSPF on both Linux and Cisco based router and your
configuration is not specific to single type of router anymore.

HI Peter,
Interesting in deed. You say that You can add a second route and weight it
as follows:
ip route add equalize 192.168.2.0/24 scope global nexthop via
192.168.0.254 dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via 192.168.0.250 dev eth0 weight 1
I want to know whether I can use the above command , when the below command
exists .
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.0.254
Then I want to know about your second answer which is "To achieve the goal
of primary path only, you can heavily weight one path over the other, some
traffic will still spill into the other, you
can remove the equalize parameter to disable this behaviour "
herein, what is this "you can heavily weight one path over the other"
When weight 1 and weight 1 , Both paths are equal. If I use weight 1 and
weight 100 , what would be the primary path ? Is it weight 1 ?
Is it the lower number which becomes primary ?
Then , in my case, is the following coomad is right?
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 scope global nexthop via
192.168.0.254 dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via 192.168.0.250 dev eth0 weight
100
I guess with the above command that traffc will flow via primary, when it
fails , traffic will flow via secondary.
That is what I need.
Am I right ? Then can I acheive this goal ?
Thanks
Indunil
