I have found link status to be a dependable IPMP failover trigger, conversely, I have found the ping method to falsely trigger failover when the default router was busy and could not respond to ping in a timely manner (but this is very rare).

That's really good ! I'm going to test that ! I thought the Link-based shouldn't rely on ping...it's really not practical to rely on pinging gateway...what if your gateway goes down ? !!

I'm gona try it and return to you

HELP me please. UNIX Routing
Hello everybody,
I need help:
I have to make routing between two different LAN.

I have the IP for first network 81.180.75.70 and the mask is 255.255.255.192
and for the second network: 192.168.1.1 and the mask 255.255.255.0

Each network has only one PC with windows, with the configuration:
1.PC. - 81.180.75.73 / 255.255.255.192
2.PC. -192.168.1.5 / 255.255.255.0

how I should configure the server (that is with UNIX KUBUNTU) for make routing? The target is to make a ping from the one of the PC ( for example 192.168.1.5 ) to the other PC from other network (81.180.75.73) and be succesful ?

please give me a advice. If it is possible write the comand.
Thank you much.

P.S. : I'm beginner in UNIX routing
