Return traffic by other ISP

hcalderon

Level 1

Hello people  

 I have an implementation:

Problem:
One router + 2 isp --->  traffic arriving from internet I have  to nat and if  fail I have to route evething for the other isp

Solucion:

 Two default  routes with diferent metric and  Track  SLA , so in this  way all return trafico  from internet  (ISP 1) is  gonna out ( return) for the other  ISP ( ISP2)

But  what  happend if some  particular trafic coming ( internet) by isp 1 change  to isp 2 ( from outside always) how can I return that  trafic for the isp 2 ( backup link)

 

***Al the  trafic coming   from internet  ( source ) is not  identificated: is any.

So, the problem is  not if link by ISP 1 fail, the problem is ¿what can I do if some particular traffic o service from internet want to reach me by isp2 and how can i  return that specific  traffic by the same isp 2

Are you running BGP with ISP, if asymmetric not going to work for you? Since other ISP2s are not aware of ISP 1 IP address and router via ISP2 network( if you have own IP address space and running ebgp with ISP)

when you do static route or PBR  with IP sla - you can have active/active(split load) or active standby fail over.

So traffic leaving from ISP will be NAtter with ISP 1 Public IP so the return traffic will return from same link

When ISP1 fails, the Routing and NAT change towards ISP2 so return traffic will from ISP2 only?

what you need here what we called conditional NAT 

ip nat inside source static x.x.x.x route-map MHM interface 
!
route-map MHM permit 10
match interface <ISP1>

this way the NAT is depend on which interface is used for traffic.
