hi there,

 

we use FG 60D, with firmware 6.0 (forget built version).

we have 2 WAN connection. WAN1 for internet connection Port 1, and WAN2 for internet connection port 7.

DDNS and VPN listening on WAN2.

 

Now, want to make:

1. whenever WAN2 down, port 7 use internet from WAN1, but not vice versa.

2. DDNS and VPN listening on WAN2, but whenever WAN2 down, DDNS and VPN listening on WAN1.

we use VPN IPSEC and VPN SSL.

 

please help. thank you

    I imagine that you should use vdoms, vdom1 includes wan1+port1, vdom2 includes wan2+port7. And then in vdom2 you make an additional routing with higher distance number that 0.0.0.0/0 goes out through vdom1. This may require inter-vdom links (as certain interfaces). I don't know about 60D if that model has this possibility. For the second point, it is simpler to keep both open and working, otherwise you should manually activate the services on wan1. Just these general notes to try, I haven't made this specific setup by myself though. Probably I miss something regarding DDNS specific or its requirements or setup.

    I am unfamiliar with DDNS but I don't think you need VDOMs to do this.  However, I believe the VPN will need to be accessible via either WAN all the time if you want it to work.  The rest should be possible via policy routing and multiple static routes with different metrics like echo mentioned.
