This is a complicated question and the answer would depend on your exact
situation. If your PM-3 is the border router and it is dual homed using
BGP4 as the routing protocol, then yes, it will do this. If the PM-3 is
being used as a NAS and is running OSPF and there are multiple routes to
the gateway then if one of the links falls down it will of course
automatically switch over.
