So, it appears the ip route metric overrides the ping -I <interface> and chooses the lowest cost path regardless. Nope.
ping -I wlan0 lists.opensuse.org will never go out any other interface than wlan0. Metric plays no part.
Actually, I tried it and watched what happened with Wireshark. I also verified the arp cache to see what MAC address was used. As I mentioned, I tried it first with both interfaces on the same network and even though I specified WiFi, it went via Ethernet. When I put the Ethernet port on a different network, the ping then went via WiFi.
BTW, I agree specifying the interface should take precedence over the metric, but it doesn't appear to.
Does here. Those packets go nowhere. No ping completed, all packets lost. Could be your system is broken, because mine acts per the man page. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
