Backup path?

[SntRkt]

I see paths can be added with a state of up, backup, and down. I added a path in the backup state, thinking it would only pass traffic when the path in the up state became degraded. This does not seem to be the case though... the backup path seems to act just like the up path. Is this by design? Is there a way to have a backup path that only passe traffic when the path(s) in the up state are degraded?

Hi,
The backup mode was supported in 0.0.x.
Since 0.1.x this option is no longer available due to many changes in the code.
I was waiting for an issue to work on it :)

Thanks! I just commited the new backup code in mud -> angt/mud@e56abf5

This is an iperf3 with one 20mbit path and one 10mbit backup path.
Coming soon :)
