Routing Differnet Subnets over 2 x WAN Links

Hi,

Just wondered if anyone can assist with this as it?s a urgent request from our customer.

Basically, we have a site with 2 x 34mb WAN links. The links work as traditional Primary / Backup so all traffic (e.g. 192.168.0.0) is routed in/out of the Primary link under normal operation. Should the Primary fail them all traffic routes over the Backup link.

Over the last few weeks Primary 34mb circuit has become overloaded so the customer has asked us to route just the IPT subnets over the backup link.

We use EIGRP on the LAN side and redistribute into BGP on the WAN side.

So, now the customer wants us to route juts the IPT subnet 10.2.0.0 in/out over the Backup link while all 192.168.0.0 traffic continues to use the Primary cirucit . But should the Backup link fail we would need the IPT subnet to route back via the Primary link. Hope that makes sense.

Does anyone know the best way to achieve this.?

We use the following commands under EIGRP / BGP to route all traffic in/out over the Primary link. I?ve changed the ip addresses but hopefully you get the drift.

Thanks for any help in advance.
John
