Hello everyone, everything good ? I would like some help from you.
I have an RB 4011 that has two internet links (Main Link Router 192.168.2.1 and Secondary Link Router 192.168.3.1) and the Network with IP 192.168.1.0/24. However, I am having problems with the operator’s router Link Principal (Sim Digital), the router is configured with IP 192.168.2.1, but it is losing the configuration and returning to IP 192.168.1.1, which is in the network’s IP range. I noticed that Netwatch changes the status to down, but in this case it does not deactivate the main link route (I had to deactivate it by hand), but if I disconnect the cable from interface 1, it deactivates the main link route.
Have you ever been through something like this?
Knowing what the ISp1 defaults to, would consider moving to a different subnet architecture for the main LAN subnet.
One of the reasons, recursive failover is helpful, is that if one cannot reach the external IP DNS IP address, the router moves to the other WAN.
It is really useful for when the ISP seems up ( from the router perspective or even ISP router/modem ) but there is no connectivity beyond the ISP.
I was preparing my reply earlier with a similar comment.
It’s not wise to use a subnet addressing scheme which may conflict with a not-wanted default setting of an ISP router.
Same reason why I will never use 192.168.88.0/24 on any of my subnets. It’s MT’s default scheme.
