I have two providers, one is fast (with a bigger usage cap), one is slow (with a smaller usage cap) so I generally default route through the fast one as the dedicated primary route with the slow sitting back as secondary (i.e. for just when the first one goes down, not round- robin).
But the slow provider zero-rates (does not count usage) from 2am-8am. What would be ideal would to be able to configure Shorewall with time- of-day route rules. I may (or may not) necessarily want to completely move the dedicated default route to the slower connection but I might like to configure a handful of routes (i.e. route-rules) as preferring the slower connection, during 2-8am. Given that I don't think the iproute package has any concept of time, cron is probably the tool here. Thoughts? b.
