RE: How to do Automatic re-routing of traffic through another

Use a dynamic routing protocol to assign a higher cost to the second
link. With that in mind, the second link will only be used when the
primary goes down.

Subject: How to do Automatic re-routing of traffic through another
interface when one interface goes down.

Dear All,

I have 2 routes (satellite and submarine OFC) a same location. Ideally,
traffic for this location from a specific vlan first hits my cat 4006,
and from here it goes to 3640 then passes thru satellite links to the
said destination. Now sometimes this satellite link goes down and we
have to manually set routes to divert this traffic thru other link
(which also connects to our cat 4006 but is shared by other users so
normally we don't prefer using this link), Is there anyway by which all
this traffic gets routed automatically once my satellite link on 3640
goes down? Do I have to make config changes in 4006 or 3640?

thanks in advance,
Regards,
Nishant
