Hi All,
I have a router A that connects to Router B and Router C. Router B in turn
connects to another Router D. Router C also connects to Router D but via
another router X.
Hence there are 2 paths on the network from router A to router D
i.e Path1: A ----- B -------- D and Path 2: A -------- C -------X
-------D
Path 1 has EIGRP configured all the way for all networks i.e Router A runs
Eigrp with router B which also runs eigrp with router D
Path 2 has static routing configured all the way for all networks
Routing works perfectly fine with both of them independently .
But I need to have them function in automatic failover mode. I.e. once the
static route fails, the EIGRP-learned route should kick in without manual
intervention.
Right now, if there is a failure between Router C and Router X, the EIGRP
learned route to Router D's loopback does not kick in and so I loose
connectivity from Router A to Router D's loopback because the static route
is still in the routing table cause of its lower AD until I manually
intervene but I need the failover to be automated.
Which solutions can i use to achieve this automatic failover? I am
preparing for my CCIE lab.
Thanks
