Generally I would advice to solve it by routing. Monitor the link and when
it goes down change the default gateway of the Squid proxy to the other,
and when available again change it back.
Combine this with source routing to not crash existing connections when
switching (some ISPs does not like seeing source addresses of another
ISP from their customers..)
