WAN load balancing question

christopher_tan

Hello All,

 

I need some help on below.

- ISP-1 provided two routers (R1 and R2), each router connect to a different internet circuit (ISP-1 and ISP-2 circuits)

- Locally have a customer router (R3)

- Locally have a public DMZ (203.xxx.xxx.xxx/24)

 

Requirement:-

1. Incoming/Outgoing traffics to/from DMZ should via both circuits equally (Load Balance)

2. R3 need to know where to route to internet

3. When there is outage on either internet circuit, no outage should occur. All traffics will route on the working circuit

 

Attach diagram what i think it will work base on the requirement. But i am not sure how the actual router configuraiton should look likes.

If it will not work base on the diagram, please help advice how can it be done.

Appreciate your time.

 

Regards,

Christopher
