Hi we have two servers which are hosted at two different location and we want to load balance the traffic for these two server in Active/ standby mode
details are as below
1) Server-A IP address is 10.10.2.50/24 and Server-B would be 20.20.20.50/24
2) Server-A hosted at Location-A datacenter & Server-B hosted at location-B datacenter.
3) If end users hit on the IP 10.10.2.20 or URL based on this IP then traffic get rerouted to Server-A.
4) In case of failover traffic gets rerouted to DR site where Server-B is hosted.
Is it possible to do on router level ?
Thanks in advance.

In case of failover? What does this mean to you? How are those locations connected? What router models you use?

One option hitting in my mind could be:-
you should use same IP for both servers, if one goes down then u can re-route the traffic, it can be easily managed via any dynamic protocol or static floating route.
