Hi Guys,
I have two Internet connections, so far when one goes down I just manually switch to the second one, but I would like to have an automatic way to switch, so that I don't have to be there when it happens.
So the question is:
What is the best way/configuration to have the backup Internet connection come up when the primary goes down?
Thanks in advance.
The two Internet connections are: Fiber and Coax.
I have inherited a couple of barracuda X400 firewalls, not my choice but they are there, one of these firewalls is currently in production environment, using the Fiber.
Ideally these firewalls need to be configure to avoid the dreaded single point of failure.
So I'm thinking in configuring the second firewall to connect the Coax.
Is this a good idea?
Is there another configuration that should be best suited for this situation?
Also I'm curious about this "dual wan" router, that sounds like another single point of failure, am I wrong?
