</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I'm using a XORP 1.4 under CentOS 4.5. I have a router connected to two ISP's and want to detect when my primary gateway is down on eth1 (Note: ethernet link is still up but gateway is unreachable) and then switch over my default route to my other ISP's gateway on eth2.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I have the static route configured with the a simple next-hop-router to eth1 with ISP1's GW and also a qualified next-hop-router to eth2 with ISP2's GW. When I turn off my cable modem to ISP1, XORP does not change my default route's GW to ISP2's GW on eth2. The only way I've gotten this to work is by removing the eth1 ethernet cable to cause the interface flags to change.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">FWIW, I've made sure that the ARP cache is flushed for the ISP1 GW.</FONT>
