Petrov" X-Sender: vap@asm.vaz.ru To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Using leased line with dialup line as a reserve Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello! I want to change connection of my FreeBSD box from dialup to leased line, and now I have a question, because I am novice in FreeBSD world. Is it possible to use leased and dialup lines simultaneously? I want to use leased line as a permanent connection and dialup line as a reserve connection to my ISP. All I want is if the leased line goes down then my FreeBSD box automatically switches to dialup line. Is this possible? If yes, then what is better to use kernel ppp or user ppp, and how I must configure my box to realize this? Currently I use FreeBSD 2.2.5-STABLE. Thank You for Your time!
