Redundant internet question

[chris.damore]

Working on a customer who is putting in a new DR site. This DR site will have redundant connections to all of their branches. The DR site will also have a redundant internet connection.

The customer would like everyone to use the internet connection at their main location first, then use the redundant internet connect only when the primary fails. What is the best way to configure this? Is it just another default route with a higher metric?

Thanks,

Chris

Yes, it's as simple as that.

Will I have to do any type of object tracking on the main default route? If not, since there is a static route, how will the other routers know the default route is down?

Thanks,
