Hello,


Has anybody had this experience/problem as well?

I'm not sure I'd expect this to work, here is just one reason.

Brian,

Ever heard of policy based routing?

particular criteria.

Yes, and that was what I was alluding to in order to make packets go out the correct interface based on the source IP in the packets.

One simple example:

You have an expensive low latency link and a high latency cheap one.
You may use policy routing to automatically select which route to use.

Is a cloud datacenter going to have multiple link types? I doubt it. And having two VMs would be easier anyways as there are probably other things you're going to tune.

A cloud provider is probably going to have multiple links to the Internet, and they'll be able to deal with one being down without any action on the part of a tenant.

I can only guess the OP wants to do this because their existing architecture is doing something like it, but I don't know.
