Yet another solution - enslave both NIC ports to a bridge interface (you'll need brctl 
utility and to compile the kernel with bridging support). Then connects both ports to 
the same switch/hub. Because of the STP mechnism of bridging one of the ports will be 
disabled so long as they both active. When either ports goes down the other will start 
working.

Cavet - it might take up to 12 secs to start working again, but it will happen 
automatically.
