Hi,
When using multiple network on vrouter, you may have multiple default gateway defined (1 per vnet)

To choose the right gateway, it is possible to set "metric", as in:

localhost:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
  address 172.25.104.254
  network 172.25.104.0
  netmask 255.255.255.0
  gateway 172.25.104.254
  metric 1000

auto eth1
iface eth1 inet static
  address 172.25.101.201
  network 172.25.101.0
  netmask 255.255.0.0
  gateway 172.25.8.20
  metric 101

Metric may be set in context variable, and retrieve from context, using something like:

# Gets the gateway metric
get_metric() {
    if is_gateway; then
        metric=$(get_iface_var "METRIC")

        if [ -z "$metric" ]; then
            if [ "$DEV" = "eth0" ]; then
                metric=1000
            else
                metric=$((100+$IFACE_NUM))
            fi
        fi

        echo $metric
   fi
}
Using that code, by default, the second network interface is the default gateway (1=LAN, 2=WAN), and that can be change using ETH{X}_METRIC=10

Perhaps a hardcoded "eth0" is not correct; but this is a starting point.

Adding the right call "METRIC=$(get_metric)" in the interface loop, this makes the job for me :)
