well... if you insist.... I'd use a floating static, with the higher distance pointing to the 56K link. keeps life simple.
I had a similar project dropped into my lap recently. This kind of stuff offends my persnickety sense of security, but what the hell, it pays the bills, right?

[7:28252] Hi All... I have been put into a project where someone else pitched a solution to implement a redundant connection over a dedicated private line (56K) and a VPN internet connection (frac T1). the hardware are 2 cisco 2611 routers with the 2 ethernet interfaces, 2 watchguard firebox 1000's, and some equipment for the private frame (already has CSU and RJ45 cable to hook up directly to ethernet interface on router). The internet connection is a fractional T1 on each side and as stated before 2 watchguard firewalls. The sides would be addressed like 172.16.x.x/16 and 172.17.x.x/16 and they were given this solution by someone who has since bailed on them after getting the equipment..... What I am looking for is what is the easiest way to implement a solution that would allow the VPN connection to be the preferred route, but also allow the private frame to pick-up if they internet connection should become latent or go down. It could grind along slowly, but would function. I was just curious if anyone has gotten this type of solution to work with a watchguard in the middle? I was thinking of using something easy like EIGRP, but am a little miffed by how exactly to make this work across the VPN and the Frame at once.... |router|---|watchguard|---internet---|watchguard|---|router| | Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=28333&t=28252 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
