Hello,

 

As far as I understand there is primary tunnel and 3 backup tunnels. You may consider to set different route priorities for 4 static routes towards VPN tunnels.

Hi Team,

 

Lets say you have two ipsec tunnels which are up.

Under network >> static routes >> set less priority to one which you want as primary tunnel and set high priority to the one which you want to set it as back up tunnel.
So once the primary tunnel goes down secondary tunnel will take up the traffic
