Dual Default route

[pepe123]

I need help on getting the following application to work. I have a Cisco 1841 with two Fastethernet. One of the FastEthernet 0/0 is connected to my internal network, Fastethernet0/1 is connect to a satellite modem to the internet. I need to have two default routes. the default routes are as follows,

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 fastethernet0/0
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 fastethernet0/1 150

What I am trying to accomplish is in the first default route goes down I need all the traffic to go over the second path. This all for internet access. Can you tell me what I am doing wrong. I cannot get the system to work. Any help will be great.

Thanks,
Jose' Luis

Why are you routing everything to your internal network? Wouldn't you want your traffic to go from your internal network outbound?

 

[pepe123]

The main internet access is through the internal network. the route is as follows,

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.68.50.5 this is the main internet connection.

So 192.168.50.0 is your internal network?

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.68.50.5 will route everything to your primary ISP and then

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 (sat modem) 150 will back up primary route.

Correct, My internal network is 192.168.50.0. Would you like a copy of the router configuration. Let me know

Thanks,
Jose Luis

 

[globalchicken]

go ahead and post it, but the static routes in my last post should work.

[globalchicken]

is 50.5 another router or firewall?

 

[pepe123]

50.5 is a PIX 506 firewall. I was thing of using the track option to solve this problem.

Thanks,

I would put a static route on the pix for all outbound traffic and point the pcs to them as a primary default gateway. Put a static route on your router with an outbound route to your sat modem and use the router as your secondary default gateway.

You can configure XP to have 2 default gateways under the advanced tab in tcp/ip settings.

[globalchicken]

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.68.50.5
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 interface FastEthernet0/1 150

The above should work as well though. Make sure your pix has the correct route to send it outbound.

I will try it tonight and let you know.

Thanks,
