How to implement Failover in VPN Router

[Tashi BDFCL]

Hi Everyone,

I have got Cisco 3845 VPN router which is currently running in our network. We have purchased one more Cisco 3845 router as a standby for VPN router.

I am planning to make the new router as a secondary router which should be connected on LIVE network. If primary router fails, secondary router should run automatically after certain period of time.

When i was looking for such kind of solution i came across of Implementing FAILOVER and LOAD BALANCING method for such kind of scenerio. As i am new to this kind of method, so i would suggest some help from the experts out here.

How do i implement Failover and Load Balancing with my TWO Cisco 3845 VPN router?

Helping hands are highly appreciated...

Thanks,

Hi,

Can you please show me the line? Since i have not idea how to implement that. I have attached the network diagram showing of router failover.

Can we implement the Virtual IP for two routers like which we have for TWO Core switch?

Thanks
