I have two sites connected through MPLS and an ipsec site to site vpn as a backup only. I have setup two IP SLA tracking by pinging the remote IPs on each link. I have setup MPLS as the prefered route. I am using static routes on both edge pixes
At the initial state, the traffic is routed through the MPLS link and the routing table shows the MPLS as the best route. When I disconnect the MPLS link, the traffic is routed through VPN and the routing table shows the route through vpn. When I bring the MPLS link back and check the routing table, it shows the MPLS as the best route, however, the traffic doesnt switch to the MPLS and stays routed through VPN.
Can someone shed some light on how to automaticly switch to the MPLS without having to use a routing protocol.
I have attached a diagram and the pixes configs
Thanks

Hi Abdel,
I guess for your scenario, you need only one object tracking on your primary link (mpls link).
Then the backup link (IPsec link) is used only when the ip sla return failed as result.
I did it but on a router not on ASA and it works proprely with only one object tracking.
Waiting for your reply

I tried your scenarion with one object tracking and it did not work.
Can you send me or post a copy of your configs?
thanks
