Link failover with ping

Hello all!

I`m finding docs/examples about this subject. After some googling,
I only found basic scripts. For me, these simple scripts available
only works with excellent links (dedicated ones).

The load balancing part of the problem already was solved with
LARTC howto. DGD patch for linux was not a good experience
because it only detects the first hop fail and 90% of these fails
happens after the first hop (e.g. local router as gateway
connected to remote ISP).

I searched for some linux distro with this feature (good failover)
bult-in, but didnt found anything interesting.

I would appreciate pointers to docs, distros (for use as starting
point), examples or even academic research about the topic.


Thank you,
Tom Lobato
