You can use RIP or some other routing protocol to advertise defualt routes to the host from the gateways based upon route availability or weight, or you can deploy reverse NAT'ing on the gateways so external IPs will be masqueraded as the internal IP of the gateway and thus be routed to the appropriate gateway based on which IP they arrived on. -Ross ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail, and any attachments thereto, is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
