Media for Cisco 2600 ADSL with failover to Ethernet with NAT

Cisco 2600 ADSL with failover to Ethernet with NAT

Good afternoon everyone,

I am having trouble setting up a simple failover configuration.

We have 2 connections (one is Fiber @ 10Mbit, other is ADSL @ 6Mbit).

The Fiber usage is expensive, so for client usage I was looking at using our ADSL as a base, but failover to the Fiber if the DSL disconnects / goes down. My servers are running on other routers, so this router is strictly for client NAT.

The problem: If I start this configuration up fresh it works. The system will NAT through the ADSL connection and all is well. I then do a =93shutdown=94 on Dialer1. It continues to work fine and automatically switches to the Fiber connection. I then do a =93no shutdown=94 on Dialer1 and the whole thing stops working. The ADSL connection gets an IP, but something seems to be messed up with the NAT part. I can=92t even traceroute from the router. Everything times out.

My current setup: eth0/0: fiber connection {static IP} eth0/1: LAN Dialer1: PPPOE ADSL {dynamic IP}

My running config: version 12.3
