Dear All,
We do have two sites (LIC and 45). one with MSFC2 and 2600 and one with RSM and 2600. .These sites are connected via T-3 and T-1. We would like to use the T-1 as a backup in case T-3 fails .We want just only one segment (10.120.0.0/16 from 45 to go over T-1 to LIC segment which is 120.0.0.0 this is our Back Office services that we need to have protected and insure that it is operational all the times given a sudden failure on the primary link T-3). We want a solution to this problem by using Static Routes and Administrative Distance. Note: Please, be advise that the IP addresses might not be the right one. (Those IPs we came up with are just samples.) Another consideration is that we have to deal with bridging irb too so would you please think at anything that we are missing but solve our problem. We want to see this scenarios from another angle and to consider another way of achieving our goal (we might need to use IP of Loop back Interfaces on both : RSM and MSFC ,or to use IP address of VLAN 20 on one site and VLAN 120 on the other site, also the use of access list too ) by using static route and administrative distance. Also, you might want to use different IP scheme and also keep in mind that in LIC site (vlan 30) the Gateway is 130.0.5.1 and 45 (vlan 120) the GW IP: is 10.120.9.1 and is configured in all the workstations. Any help or input it will be GREAT. Thank you, Mike P.
