In our office we have dual WAN setup, if our cable connection drops we still get connectivity via our T1. The only issue is that our office network is no longer available on the same IP so all Nagios check go critical because they can't connect.

What'd be awesome is if I could have Nagios try IP 1 by default but if for some reason its failing on that IP try IP 2.

I doubt this is possible with a default install but I'm wondering if there is any add-ons or some other magic that could make this work?
