I understand that another network is not reachable if gw interface is down. But for case below gw should not be needed in the isolated nw segment. PC1: eth0: 192.168.10.10/24 eth1: 192.168.10.11/24 ip route show default via 192.168.10.10 dev eth0 192.168.10.0/24 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.10.10 192.168.10.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.10.11 PC2: eth0: 192.168.10.12/24 What bother me is the fact that PC2 located on the *same* network segment is not capable of reaching PC1 via eth1 if eth0 is dead. I wonder if kernel multipath has any influence over this...
