Hello Ivan,

Thank you for your response.
In my design, I am load sharing the traffic by multihomed BGP with two ISPs through two local 7600 routers. To avoid any single point of failure, we have a backup link for each ISP connected to each local router. as below:
Router1 connected with primary link of ISP1 and backup link of ISP2.
Router2 connected with primary link of ISP2 and backup link of ISP1
I only receive default-route from each ISP (primary bgp peer has higher local preference on each router).
my network is divided into two subnets (x.x.32.0/20 & x.x.48.0/20)
normally, x.x.32.0/20 go through Router1 & ISP1, and x.x.48.0/20 go through Router2 & ISP2 incoming and outgoing.

what I need is, once the primary BGP peer of ISP1 on Router1 goes down, the subnet x.x.32.0/20 go to backup link on Router2 which is already has a preferred default route from ISP2 serving the subnet x.x.48.0/20. The same case should be applied vice versa. load sharing for incoming traffic is working properly, but my problem is with outgoing traffic since I am only receiving default-route from each ISP!

I know it is a bit complicated but I hope you can give me some help.

Thank you,
Manaf

Absolutely, with EEM 3.0 an applet can be triggered with an SNMP trap or
inform. The details are here (although the article describes a slightly
different task):

However, are you absolutely positive there is no other way to get what you
need? In many cases you could use a smart routing design instead of the PBR.

Subject: [c-nsp] Event Manager question


Hi all,

Can I configure event manager to be started when it gets
notification from another router. for example, I want router1
to be configured with policy based routing on a specific
interface once the bgp peer on router2 is down. I don't want
to permanently configure the PBR since it is consume very
high CPU utilizing on router1

Thank you,
Manaf
