      Hi.

      Just installed 2.0 RC1 20110408 today over a 1.2.3. Started to use multi-wan for failover.
      Using WAN as primary, OPT3 as secondary(ADSL) and OPT2(3G, Sony Ericsson W902 via USB) as tertiary.

      Noticed that there is a activity almost every 2 seconds on the OPT3 and OPT2.

      1. How often is the monitor IP being polled?
      2. Can it be changed by a administrator? If not, where in the source code is the interval located?

      Thanks.

        The monitor IP is updated every second. You could change the interval if you want, but it may cause other issues. Edit /etc/inc/gwlb.inc and find the line for the interval under the default target. Then edit/save a gateway to resart apinger.
