We have a wireless network with around 1000 clients and we are using a MikroTik router (routerOS X86) with PPPOE and radius for authentication and traffic shaping.
We would like to run two MikroTik routers in a parallel configuration to both load balance and act as a safety in case one MikroTik fails.
We have multiple connections to the internet, however the balancing and redundancy is handled by Cisco routers using HSRP, so we do not want to configure the MikroTiks for multiple LAN fail over.
We are open to a config where one is a master and one is a slave and all traffic passes over the master until if fails and then the slave would handle all of the traffic, however we would prefer to have the user split between the two MikroTiks to help reduce the load on each router and then if one fails all the traffic would be handled by one.
Does anyone know if that is easily done?
Thanks in advance
