Best way to do this

Hi all.. I have one gateway site and two remote sites each connected to the gateway with a WLAN backhaul. All are on the same subnet, .17. Each remote site has a wired network with several devices on this same .17 subnet. All devices in each remote site can communicate with each other.

I would like to add cell routers to each of the remote sites as backup internet connections. I have tested using the RUT956 between the WLAN station and the LAN by setting the WAN as LAN option on the LAN interface. This seems to work fine. The arp list shows many of the devices in the other remote site.

However, I notice that the default route on the RUT956 is the mobility port. Shouldn’t it be the LAN? I would like all traffic to go to the .17.1 gateway. And if it is unavailable, send traffic thru the mobile interface.

Any suggestions are appreciated..

Hello,

You can either use Static Routing or Policy Based Routing to achieve traffic going from specific interfaces to specific subnets through specific gateways.

Here are some reference links for you to read to decide which one you’d like to use:
Static Routing: RUT956 Routing - Teltonika Networks Wiki
PBR (Policy Based Routing): RUT956 Routing - Teltonika Networks Wiki

You can then also setup Failover so when one of the connections fail, it fails over to the other one: RUT956 Failover - Teltonika Networks Wiki
