#!/bin/sh
# Check if the (default) gateway configured for the interface is 
# present in our network
#
# This script should be installed in /etc/network/if-up.d/
# It can also be used as a standalone script by setting up
# its environment:
#    IFACE=eth0 IF_GATEWAY=192.168.0.1 check-gateway
#
# NOTE: If IF_GATEWAY is not provided the script will try to test
# the default gateway.
#
# TODO:
#
#   - Support non-default gateways that might have been set at the 
#     same time the interface was enabled.
