It would make sense to use vrrpd with status tracking of WAN gateway
but AFAIK no such feature exists as yet.
If I understand what you are saying, you are referring to an external
T-1 router converting from the WAN circuit to the ethernet going in to
the two routers right?
If this is the case, no matter what is done, the WAN router is a single
point of failure and thus can not be avoided.
No matter what, the Linux boxen can be configured such that they will
try to reach this single point of failure and in the event that they can
not do so, they (both) will ultimately return an ICMP "no route to host"
error message back to the client. However this is out side the scope of
what VRRP is meant to do.
