Hi GFI Support Team

We have multiple deployments of Kerio Control (Physical NG510 and VMs) and we are missing a crucial feature to allow for tracking of next-hop IPs on static routes to allow for failover of LAN routes. Although there is a feature request to allow for Dynamic routing protocols (OSPF/BGP/RIP..etc), I think this would provide an interim solution until dynamic routing is supported on Kerio Control.

Essentially we are looking for a similiar feature to IP SLA probes (ICMP probe) on Cisco routers to track reachability of the next-hop IP on static routes, so that when the next hop is down (for a few pings), it would use the next available static route with a higher metric.

Please let us know if this is feasible to implement in a future release?

Thanks

Gaz
