It is a bit difficult to understand what you are trying to sat. I think you are looking for a solution wherein you have 2 ISP links that are load balanced, and link failure detection is automatic. The latter is quite simple - use cron scheduler to ping at regular intervals, detect failure and switch to the active link (shell scripting necessary). If you want a ready made solution, this might be of help http://www.wifi.com.ar/cdrouter.html I have not tried it myself.

Re: [Ilugc] Two Static Ip connection
It is a bit difficult to understand what you are trying to sat. I think you are looking for a solution wherein you have 2 ISP links that are load balanced, and link failure detection is automatic. The latter is quite simple - use cron scheduler to ping at regular intervals, detect failure and switch to the active link (shell scripting necessary). OP - will help if you post an ASCII diagram of your network. If both links terminate on the linux machine: Better way would be to have 2 default routes with equal or weighted cost balancing turned on. see http://www.lartc.org for more help. More robust than checking links using methods like ping as those replies are turned off in many cases. If the links are terminating on two different machines, look at using VRRP with object linking. If you want a ready made solution, this might be of help http://www.wifi.com.ar/cdrouter.html I have not tried it myself. It looks like the person using this needs to know a lot more than what OP wanted to do. This package includes shorewall, wondershaper etc which require some good networking knowhow and scenario conceptualisation. Rare to find unless one has tinkered around these by hand.

Re: [Ilugc] Two Static Ip connection
I could not really understand what's your problem is,Please try writing it clearly.It seem that your office has two internet connections, you have setup two servers windows and linux both installed with squid.Now you want the employees to be automatically redirected to use one of the connection which is active at that moment?
