we have a main office using OSPF to communicate with the ISP.
We have 2 remote offices that use only RIP with a default gateway with their ISP connection.
we have an alternate mpls connection for emergencies connecting the main office to the remotes. ( should not be in use unless ISP of remote office or main office fails.)
i need to configure a situation where if either remote office loses its ISP connection it will automatically fail over to the main office and vice versa. if the main office ISP connection fails i need that office to fail to one of the remote site. with a preference for one over the other.
we need all network and VOIP connections to work as well.
i know OSPF routes override RIP static routes. so how do i get the remote sites to use the default RIP route and only use the link to the main office if their ISP goes down.
i can do this manually now by unplugging the main office ISP - connecting the mpls failover circuit - manually adding routes.
i need this automated.
open to suggestions. thank you for your time. also very new to routing.
