Site A has two internet connections from two isp’s and one router. The router is Cisco 1700 series connected to a PIX 515e. Site A has an MPLS connection from ISP 1 to Site B which also acts as it’s internet connection. The source of ISP1’s internet is at site B. Site A has two ethernet interfaces. The Fast0 is connected to the MPLS link from ISP 1 whiles ethernet0 is connected to ISP 2. ISP 2 connection is via VSAT on the serial interface. We would like to create a failover situation at site A so that if the MPLS link fails, the system should be able to switch to the VSAT
for internet at Site A.
The config below only works if the weight on the default route on the serial0 is manually increased to the same level as the default route on 10.20.20.9. and the gateway on the Domain controller acting as DHCP is changed to the internal IP of the firewall.
How can the router's config made to work automatically without any manual intervention
