Hi, everybody

I've run into a strange problem while trying to implement cisco's 'ip sla' replacement for a customer.

at an openbsd router i have

em0: 192.168.0.1/24 - local network

em1: 111.111.111.2/30 - uplink 1

em2: 222.222.222.2/30 - uplink 2

ip forwarding is on, routes received via bgp, everything work as expected.

the only problem is when something happens deep inside uplink's network:

sessions stay up, routes still present, but no traffic can pass though uplink.

BFD would help, may be, but I stick to what i have right now.

I am trying to
ping -I 111.111.111.2 8.8.8.8

but get no answer, because route to 8.8.8.8 set through uplink2, furthermore

i see my pings on em2 with tcpdump which seems rather strange to me, as I am enforcing the interface.

if i ping 8.8.8.8 the normal way "it works" (tm).

pinging with -I 222.222.222.2 works too.

so ?

perhaps I am overlooking something very-very basic, so help me to get off the brake.
