I have a FreeBSD/x86 3.4 box configured with two NICs, both connected
to separate networks. I have one default route. How would I do the
following:
1. Respond to all packets coming from NIC #1 through NIC #1 and
respond to all packages coming from NIC #2 through NIC #2.
Because I have a default route, all packages return through
only one NIC.
2. If NIC #1 goes down and the default route is set to NIC #1,
no packets can go through on NIC #2 (only for that subnet).
Is it possible to add a second default route so when the
network on NIC #1 goes down packets are sent through
NIC #2 (this disturbs connections already on NIC #1 but
that's OK).
