Hi All
We have a simple setup, 2 ASR 1001 routers at site A, both with 200Mbit links, these then connect to site B with the same routers at the other end.
At the moment, we route to a HSRP IP of the active router, so an active standby setup.
We want to start using the other link, but we don't want to start putting individual routes from the firewall etc as it just gets messy.
My thoughts are to use PFR for this.
What is the easiest way to do this? do we need a layer 3 router / switch in front of the ASR?
Can we run the MC on one of the ASRs? would the other end need a MC/BR?
Would it be easier to get APIC to do this?
cheers

Hi pretty much like below
RTR A ---------200Mbit----------RTR B
FW FW
RTR C ---------200Mbit----------RTR D
There is a IPsec GRE tunnel currently on each router connecting each site, the FW simply points to an HSRP IP, So at the moment all traffic flows over A to B. we use EIGRP for the routing, we redistribute static into eigrp from each end

Hi
Yes that's correct about HSRP
on the LAN side, they are not neighbours, they only form a neighbourship over the WAN tunnel interface

Hi
Yes they could become neighbours and we do have tracking on there
