Title: ADSL Fallback to ISDN
Post by: isi on April 08, 2005, 11:05:11 AM

Hey tuxians,

iam new tuxian and SME user.

I´ve got a question: I would like to have a Fallback system from ADSL to ISDN if there is a problem with ADSL.

Is this possible?. I haven´t found anything like that. How can i realise that?.

Best wishes ;-)

Hi isi,

I not really sure how to do it with SME. But the is an alternitive, and that is to use a dedicated computer with three or four NIC's in and use a firewall software like IPCop or Smoothwall. (i personally think IPCop the best) And set your server to run though the firewall.

These firewalls handle multi internet connection profiles if one happens to fail it goes to the next.

Thank you for your reply. Is Ipcop able to look after the lost connection if it´s working again?.
