I don't know does this belong in here or in general discussion.
OK. Let's imagine network like this. We have two networks 192.168.100.0/24 and 192.168.200.0/24.
We have 2 ASL Boxes with interfaces in both networks. Then whe have two hosts, one in each network.
I can configure two default gateways for each host with priorities of usage. So i put the routing as follows:
192.168.100.100=[192.168.100.1 | 192.168.200.1]=192.168.200.100
192.168.100.100=[192.168.100.2 | 192.168.200.2]=192.168.200.100
Now if i switch off ASL box1 [192.168.100.1|192.168.200.1], the hosts will communicate via ASL box2 [192.168.100.2|192.168.200.2] (I have tested and this actually works [:)]ce versa too.
Problem is that i need to upkeep two almost identical configurations. Only interface addresses differ.
Could it be possible to create automated system, that updates all configuration except interfaces from other ASL box in spesified interval (or even real time).
Other thing... How about licensing. I have license to protect 100 ip's. Can I set up backup system with almost same configuration without buying another 100 ip licenses to get backup system legally licensed ?
