two path from MPLS as primary and backup, need to have link redundancy

Dear All

help need.

I have two links coming from MPLS could as primary and backup

Attached the scenario.

I would like to have Link redundancy for our MPLS network.

Kindly tell me what protocol service I could use to achieve this.

HSRP or GLBP

Details

SW1

int vlan 30

ip address 10.1.1.3 255.255.255.248

router ospf 1

net 10.1.1.3 0.0.0.0 are 0

net 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 are 0

R1

int g0/0

ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.248

int g0/1

Ip address 10.2.2.1 255.255.255.252

router ospf 1

net 10.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 are 0

net 10.2.2.1 0.0.0.0 are 0

R1

int g0/0

ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.248

int g0/1

Ip address 10.2.2.2 255.255.255.252

router ospf 1

net 10.1.1.2 0.0.0.0 are 0

net 10.2.2.2 0.0.0.0 are 0

right not I just manually maintain the redundancy.

thanks

HSRP would be best option in this scenario.

Suppose R1 is Primary and R2 is back then

HSRP on R1 should have higher HSRP priority. R1 should have HSRP preempt delay 180.

Also make sure that you have tracking for WAN interface on R1  so that if R1 WAN fail then R1 lower the priority and R2 take over. 

Also for symmetric routing path Advertised R2 routes to Provider with worse bgp attribute like AS prepends.

Please let me know if you have any issue on this and Rate for useful post. 

Thanks
