I have 2 WANS using recursive routing with scope and target scope of 10 and on the last part making the recursove routing happening with target-scope of 11
but distance 3 for ISP1(pppoe) marked main and distance 1 for ISP2 DHCP client on port ether2 marked wan2 on my RB4011.
question: will not all traffico being sent out ISP2 and certain traffic out ISP1 with marking ias wan2 in magle
today router is using both wans but i want just some traffic out ISP1 and working when wan2 is failng …
Sorry words are not clear.
a. provide a diagram for context and
b. full config for actual evidence of what is setup.
/export file=anynameyouwish ( minus router serial number and any actual public WANIP information )
today i have Recursive backup not working since the PPPoe is not “main” in Routing table but “wan1” to send TRAFIC X out that interface only
and the rest of the trafic using WAN2 or Ether2 interface using DHCP to obtain ip from ISP router.
Horrible explanation, nothing is clear. Please dont talk about the config because you go in circles…
Identify users/devices groups of users including admin
Identify what traffic they should have or not have ( between subnets, internet, to specific devices )
identify which WAN they should use if applicable.
In terms of dual WAN, details are important
a. Primary Secondary with failover ?
b. PCC load balancing.
c. Any inbound Port Forwarding.
d. any VPNs.
e. any exceptions to a. (for individuals or servers etc..)
if not understood i rest my case and apology to all and remove this post but this is a place to ask for help as far as i understand and
no need to be rude, thank you.
Concept:
Setup basic recursive routing as required WAN2 primary, WAN1 secondary.
Add Table for WAN1 usage.
Add Route for WAN1 with Table
Add Routing rules identifying dst-addresses of external sites for new table.
The only question left unanswered is what happens when WAN1 is unavailable for whatever reason.
Did you want all the requests to those external sites to be shifted to outgoing on WAN2 or just be dropped?
I Want the traffic to switch from WAN2 to WAN1 , the way i got this to work is the basic failover that work on main and added WAN1 for trafic that needs WAN 1 for its traffic with rule 0.0.0.0/0 gateway of ISP1 route wan1 and defined in routing->rule(creating the rule here rather than in IP->firewall-Mangle used to be prior to ROS7 as i understand) set dest IP and parameter lookup only and seems to work good..
would be nice to keep the VoIP calls alive but that is another question to ask but not here.
