The easiest way to accomplish this is to set the local preference in your AS
to prefer one link over the other under normal operations. If the preferred
link goes down, the secondary link will take over. Local Pref is a
attribute which gets transited throughout only your AS providing all your
BGP speakers the same information. Take a look at Halabi for examples of
'Local Pref' usage.
