Hello,

Appreciate anyone's help here. My users at Router A have their Intranet and Internet access(via 2Mb leased line) to Router B and then ISP's Internet router. I have another link(1.5Mb) at Router A connected to the Internet router(same ISP). Logically I should be directing users at Router A to this Internet link rather going thru' Router B. How do I configure Router A so that users access their Internet via the 1.5Mb internet link and leave intranet access as it is(thru' router B). I also have a Netcache at router A and already configured to access Internet via 1.5Mb link. All routers in use are from Cisco (IOS 12.2).
Thanks again.
 
Look at your routing table and see which route is preferred to the internet. If it's through router B, then just adjust the metric on that route (in router A to router B) to be higher and that should make the traffic to the internet flow your preferred path to the internet. And all your intranet traffic should still flow the same. Assuming you have a private network.
