sending to same dest via different interfaces

[Etzion Bar-Noy]

Eventually I will master the secret art of sending e-mail messages to the
right persons, with the right content. A secret and holy art it is...

Assuming you want the paths to be selected dynamically based on load, you
can use iputils2 'ip route' to create a multi-homed routes. You will not
have a clean control over how a specific packet goes, however, you will be
able to split the communication between the two interfaces to whichever
ratio you desire. Lots of info on the Internet.
