Thanks for the quick response. I've read the information but it is too 
complicated for me.
I didn't  understand what configuration I should prepare for my setup.

So, I'm looking for an easier way. In fact, I don't need to track any IP 
addresses as both connections are ppp, The interface comes down when a 
connection failure occurs.
In that case, I should lose the route over that interface and automatically all 
packets should be routed through the remaining link. Am I wrong ?

Btw, as the connections are ppp, I don't have seperate IP addresses to track 
for each connection. In that case, how can I write the LSM config accordingly ?

Thanks.

See http://www1.shorewall.net/MultiISP.html#LinkMonitor.

Note however that all existing connections through the failed provider will be 
terminated and must be restarted through the remaining provider.
