Linux routers make the Baby Emperor God cry. That aside....

The issue you're going to have is possibly asymmetric routes, and if you're
doing NAT actually have an assigned subnet.

The ideal situation is you have a BGP feed to both peers, and you can control
the routing on your end through something like
Zebra/Quagga/Whatever-It's-Called-Today.

I'm guessing you don't, but there are still multiple solutions.

If you're doing NAT, the easy way is to simply build a custom NAT rule for the
known subnets. Of course this depends on the subnets not changing.

If you're not doing NAT, you should be able to use the advanced policy routing
rules of iproute, and you still may have to use NAT if your address range isn't
under your control. Check up the iproute documentation anyway, it should be
possible.
