Hello,
Please advise if the following setup will work; end goal is to distribute VPN traffic over the two ISPs, and possibly set up automatic failover.
Say that the OpenSWAN box is configured as follows:
+------------>(eth0) ISP1
|
subnet1 <-->(eth2) OpenSWAN box--+
|
+------------>(eth1) ISP2
If i configure load balancing over the two links via iproute command
ip route add default scope global nexthop via $ISP1 dev eth0 weight 1 nexthop via $ISP2 dev eth1 weight 1
and set
leftnexthop=%defaultroute
will this do the job? tia
