Redundent Problem for two ISP in cisco 891 router

Ibrahim Bhuiyan

Hi,

I am using cisco 891 router for my office with two ISP. Both the ISP I am using for fail over or redundant. Two LAN separately is being used accordingly with two ISP. But the problem is when one ISP connection has goes down then another ISP does not worked. If I disconnect the cable of the down cable from router then another ISP works fine. I can't understand the problem. I already attached the configuration file below. Please suggest what will be solution?

Hi, 

 

when you say "the first ISP goes down" what do you mean by that? Is it the physical link or ISP network? If it is the latter, then the problem that you have is that ISP router is still active and the route on your 891 is sending traffic there. When you physically disconnect that interface goes down and the router reroutes the traffic. 


Use policy based routing with IP SLA for tracking. Track 8.8.8.8 or similar, when it is not reachable, configure the router to reroute to the active interface. 
Check the below example for more details

Thank you M.G.

the first ISP goes down means ISP link down. But I use two LAN for two ISP. If one is down then another will work. but after one down another ISP connection does not work.

Did you check the configuration file?

Hello,

 

I have made some changes to your configuration (relevant parts in bold). See if you can implement this and get it to work: The WAN IP addresses are (obviously) arbitrary, replace those with yours.
