Hi Lawrence, I have seen no response to you question, so: 1. never use source route as an operationnal solution: a lot of security boxes (hard and soft) and OSes drop packets with source route option. This kind of packet is VERY dangerous. 2. why don't u use BGP to solve your problem? JDG Selon Lord Sporkton <lordsporkton () gmail com>:
I wanted to do a double wan with a source route with an sla or similar i want a certain IP to use a certain outbound connection unless that connection is down at which time i want it to use a different connection I was looking into doing this with a source route tied to SLA, something like any from hostA next hop wan1 track blahhh but wasnt sure on the specifics? should i policy match on a route? and then track on that route with sla? or other? this is just something spinning in my head, im going to do a mock test in a day or so but wanted to ask if anyone has done something like this. in this case the policy route is needed as normal traffic will go out a different connection and the specific ip/traffic that will be source routed thank you Lawrence _______________________________________________ firewall-wizards mailing list firewall-wizards () listserv icsalabs com https://listserv.icsalabs.com/mailman/listinfo/firewall-wizards
