G'Day all,

Got a network that has 2 DSL connections.
The 1st has cheap data and the 2nd is a more reliable provider.
Basically all data goes out the first provider except some IPs which
will use the second provider (just a ipfw fwd rule).
If the cheap one goes offline data has to route out via the 2nd ISP,
likewise if the 2nd does happen to go off then the fwd rule needs to be
dropped.

I have already solved this with an attached script (for
suggestions and maybe to help others who may face this problem in the
future).

Anyway I plan to put the 2 modems into bridge mode use the ppp that
comes with fbsd to do the auth side of things.

My question is what should I use for NAT.  Use the inbuilt NAT that 
comes with PPP or firewall based?

TIA

Cheers
cya
Andrew
