It also sets up a route rule so that this alternate -route table is looked up for traffic where the source IP address matches -the primary IP address of the corresponding interface. This guarantees -that a service bound to the primary address of an interface will always -use routes from that interface. -.Pp -It can also ping specified hosts at regular intervals to detect if a -gateway via a certain interface goes down. It will then remove the default -gateway(s) via this interface from main route table so that traffic not -bound to the failed interface will fail over to other configured interfaces. -.Pp -Pingu can also set up a multipath nexthop defafult route for interfaces -configured as "load-balance" -.Bl -tag -width indent -.It Fl a -Use SOCKETPATH as administration socket instead of the default @DEFAULT_ADM_SOCKET@ -.It Fl c -Use config file CONFIG instead of the default @DEFAULT_CONFIG@ -.It Fl d -Fork to background (daemonize). -.It Fl h -Show short help text. -.It Fl p -Use PIDFILE as pidfile instead of the default @DEFAULT_PIDFILE@ -.It Fl V -Print version and exit. -.It Fl v -Run in verbose mode.
