Hey, thanks for replying. It doesn't seem to work with any number at all actually.
If I didn't have multipathing enabled, these work: $ route change default -priority 1 $ route change default -priority 15 $ route change default -priority 6 But having multipath setup, it seems like it doesn't know which route to change or how to handle it: $ route change -mpath default 64.4.4.4 -priority 1 $ route change -mpath default 64.4.4.4 -priority 6 $ route change -mpath default 64.4.4.4 -priority 15 # route: writing to routing socket: No such process # change net default: gateway 64.4.4.4: not in table I guess normally you don't need to specify the gateway in the command without multipath because there is only one gateway. But I need to be specific. If I try $ sudo route change -mpath default -priority 7 Then it lets the system choose which route to change and I get very mixed results (sometimes one interface gets the priority..and sometimes the other one!) I might be wrong, but if you might know of a way to do it, I would appreciate any hints. Hope it's not a bug?
