Cisco 2621XM interface metrics

Apr 20, 2007 2 Replies

All right guys I am totally brain dead today. I am in need of assistance with routing metrics. My company just added a satellite internet fail over for internet service in case our cable modem goes down. I need to keep this as simple as possible. I can't run BGP or dial backup asneither the cable modem nor the sat modem support these.



The setup is a cisco into a 5 port switch via FE 0/0 cable modem and sat modem into the same 5 port switch This unfortunately can't be changed, it needs to stay this way for now. Serial0/0 into LAN gateway. The soul purpose of this router is for internet fail over processing.


This is what my router currently looks like. IOS 12.3 interface FastEthernet0/0 description $WAN$ ip address 66.181.50.122 255.255.255.248 secondary
