I have a two different ISP providers that come into two different
routers but both routers on the same network (192.168.1.0/24). I need
to be able to RDP to one server from both ISP's. If I setup gateways
to either router RDP works but if I have both routers hooked up and
both gateways in there it only works on the Primary gateway. Here is
a little beter picture of my nextwork and what I am trying to do.


ISP 1 ------- Router 1\ (192.168.1.1)
> Switch 0 ---- Server Wanting to RDP
to.(192.168.1.17 GW 192.168.1.1(1) 192.168.1.4 (50))
ISP 2 ------ Router 2/ (192.168.1.4)

Thanks for the help in advance.

Thanks,
Jon
 
Re: Backup RDP

Hi Jon,

For this I recommend you use a bandwidth aggregation
device. The device will connect directly to your two ISP
routers and your internal network and manage the traffic
between the three. You need to choose one that has the
ability to do what you need--making sure that connections
that come in from one ISP will go back out the same way.

I recommend that you contact each company and explain
to them *exactly* your needs regarding *incoming* connections
that must remain "sticky" to a particular WAN link. Some
of the products available are focused more on the other
side--load balancing internal users connecting to web sites
over multiple Internet connections.

There are many available so you will need to do some
research. Some manufacturers have evaluation models so
that you can try out the device and send it back if you are
unhappy. Other solutions are available that are software
based and will require a PC with multiple NICs for them to
run on. There are inexpensive ones based on Linux if you
are technically savy and willing to do the configuration
yourself.

For example, look at this manufacturer's Vector Routing
description as well as the diagram at the bottom of the page:
