Hi i need some advice on proposing
a back up route for a CAT6K ( the CAT6K in HSRP). One of the CAT6K port is non switchport and connected to SiteB through metroethernet.(see attached diagram) The routes going to 172.16.2.X and 172.16.3.X goes through the metroE and the 2600 has a network behind it that sees the routes to 172.16.2.X and 172.16.3.X through the CAT6K VIP IP (192.168.1.VIP)
Question is since one of the port in 2600 has an ip of 192.168.1.50 and part of VLAN5, if the MetroE fails, what would be the best DDR option to use to have the ISDN kick-in to dial to site B
I was thinkin of floating static routes for the CAT6K
e.g. CAT6K routing
ip route 172.16.2.X 255.255.255.0 172.16.1.2
ip route 172.16.3.X 255.255.255.0 172.16.1.2
ip route 172.16.2.X 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.50 200
ip route 172.16.3.X 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.50 200
2600 routing (one of the ethernet interface have an ip of 192.168.1.50)
ip route 172.16.2.X 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.VIP
ip route 172.16.3.X 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.VIP
ip route 172.16.2.X 255.255.255.0 Dialer1 {SITE B loopback ip?} 200
ip route 172.16.2.X 255.255.255.0 255.255.0.0 Dialer1 {SITE B loopback ip?} 200
Is there a possibility that the routes will just throw back and forth between the 2600 ethernet and CAT6K VIP ip when the metroE fails? Any suggestions on the interesting traffic for the dialer watch?
Thanks
