check_route or equivalent?

I've got a second firewall connected to an adsl modem as a backup and I 
want to be able to monitor that the second line is actually working and 
routing properly to the internet.

What I would like to do is to send a traceroute to www.google.com but 
send it via the ip of the backup firewall instead of the default gateway.

I just want to check ping using this ip as my local gateway instead of 
the usual default gateway.

Does anybody know of a plugin to do this or have any idea how I can send 
this ping without changing my routing on the nagios host server?
