failover script for possible ISP downtime

by r_o_l_a_n_d . Updated 17 years, 4 months ago

hi all,
i’m wondering if anyone can guide me to a batch script or a vps or shell (could run it on cygwin) that could help me do failover solution for possible ISP downtime (i have a windows server with two NICs) with two ISP’s one of them is backup. the thing is, i’m looking for a way when a ping times out on one interface, the script immediately switches the default route to the other interface..

i’m a bit green with the whole batch/shell scripting techniques.
i’ve tried my luck using a shell script on cygwin but that resulted in a failure..
so any advice would be appreciated:)
thanks,
Roland
