INTERNET REACHABILITY DETECTION AND INTERNET HIGH AVAILABILITY FOR MULTI-HOMED NETWORK DEVICES

摘要

A method for determining Internet reachability and Internet high availability for a multi-homed device in a network having a plurality of network interfaces includes connecting the multi-homed device to a network interface of interest in the plurality of network interfaces and disabling any functionality of setting a default route entry for the at least one network interface of interest until a determination of Internet reachability is made.
