This may be a simple one, but I need assistance. I have two buildings connected via P-T-P fiber (100/100). Site "B" (VLAN 24) gets its Internet service from Site "A" 100D SD-WAN (WAN1 200/200, WAN2 300/25). I have added a 60D to Site "B" (WAN1 300/25). How do I route the Site "B" Internet traffic to the 60D normally for that site and use the Site "A" 100D in case I lose the Site"B" WAN1 connection. DHCP is handled from Site "A" (VLAN 16).
I lost the P-T-P fiber for 30 hours a few weeks ago and put the Internet connection at SIte "B".
Thank You
Hi Julian,
I had to read this several times before I finally think I understand. There are routers other than the FortiGate that you are using to connect the two sites, right? So from the Site B router's perspective, it has a default route (0.0.0.0/0) pointing to the Site A router, right? Are you running any dynamic routing protocols in the network already? You will definitely need a tracked route at minimum to determine where to send your Internet traffic, and if you don't already you will also need more specific routes pointing to Site A's internal networks.
