L2 VPN Redundancy

Hi all,

 

We did a cenario of Site-to-site L2 VPN for a customer (they can't change this topology yet). So there are 20 braches (2 wan links each) and 1 HQ (2 wan links), so we configured 4 VPN each branch.

 

Something like this each one:

 

 

HQ and branches have SD-WAN for basic failover.

 

So the problem is, if one branch failover to wan2, ok, everything is fine, but when it returns to wan1 there is a loop (broadcast storm) until the VPN of wan2 goes down.

We decrease the keepalive time of VPN to:

set dpd-retrycount 1 set dpd-retryinterval 3

 

Is there any solution to VPN of wan2 goes down before VPN Wan1 goes up?

Or something to avoid broadcast storm inside software switch?

 

Thanks.
