First, thanks to all for the suggestions.

Now, using the same scenario,

> > 1) rl0 (real.ip.no.1) ---> ISP x
> >
> > 2) rl1 (real.ip.no.2) ---> ISP y

Suppose 1) is down and I=B4m using 2). If I "ping www.google.com",
it will go out through 2). What I really need to do is to issue 
the same "ping www.google.com" but make go out through 1) !!

Of course I could switch the default route to 1), test, then switch it bac=
k to 2),
but I can=B4t do it this way because internet traffic should remain undist=
urbed.

That is why the "Forcing a packet..." subject.

thanks
