In this example we will setup redundant links using dynamic routing where 2 routers will be connected using multiple links directly – Main WAN and two Backup WANs in order to make sure LAN devices on each end would be available in case Main links fail. | In this example we will setup redundant links using dynamic routing where 2 routers will be connected using multiple links directly – Main WAN and two Backup WANs in order to make sure LAN devices on each end would be available in case Main links fail. | ||

For this example, we will need two routers with 3 separate WAN interfaces. It can either be Wired links or Private Mobile networks. In this example we will use 3 wired links for the simplicity of testing. However, there can be other variations, such as 1 Wired link and 2 Mobile links. | For this example, we will need two routers with 3 separate WAN interfaces.

Each WAN on both ends has to be in the same private network. In other words: | Each WAN on both ends has to be in the same private network. In other words: | ||

==Configuring First Router== | |||
We will not go too deep into basics. Assuming we already have VLANs set up to have three different links between routers according to the topology as well as failover between them enabled, we can jump straight into configuring dynamic routes using OSPF. | |||
