2011/3/25 Randy Cosby <dco...@infowest.com> > We have a new network we've built out with Mikrotik backhauls and RB450G's > at each tower. The towers are all connected to each other in a ring, as > shown below. Users off each AP are connecting over PPPOE through a PPPOE > concentrator (Cisco 2811) at the main tower. At the Main Tower, we use a > cisco 3560 switch instead of a Mikrotik router. > > > Main Tower : PPPOE concentrator, backhauls to Tower 1 and 3 > > Tower 1 : 2 AP's, sitemonitor, etc. BH's to main tower and tower 2. > > Tower 2 : 2 AP's, sitemonitor, etc. BH's to tower 1 and tower 3. > > Tower 3 : 2 AP's, sitemonitor, etc. BH's to tower 3 and main tower > > (Internet) > \ > Main Tower ----- Tower 3 > | | > | | > Tower 1---------- Tower 2 > > We need to have private IP access from the main tower to each of the > devices for management, as well as have layer 2 ethernet from each enduser > device back to the PPPPOE concentrator. Currently we have separate vlans > from the main tower to tower 1 and tower 3. We manually (working on > scripting) swap the active vlan in case of an outage, but that is not > optimal.

Just curious what others are using to get automatic > fail-over and load sharing in this type of scenario. > > Thanks! > > -- > > Randy Cosby | InfoWest, Inc | www.infowest.com > Vice President | 435-674-0165 x 2010 | facebook.com/infowest > > > > _______________________________________________ > Mikrotik mailing list > Mikrotik@mail.butchevans.com > http://www.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik > > Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik > RouterOS > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
