Host1 is the primary next upstream router.
Host2 is the fail-over next upstream router.

Hi All,

I see this link 
http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Advanced_Routing_Failover_without_Scripting and 
am trying to implement but I don't understand the Host1, Host2 in this section. 
It says gateway= but If my primary link is DHCP, I don't have a gateway that I 
can rely upon. Can I use any address out on the net like google 8.8.4.4 and 
8.8.8.8? Also, Are these the same hosts as in the dst-address section?

/ip route
add distance=1 gateway=Host1 routing-mark=ISP1 check-gateway=ping
add distance=2 gateway=Host2 routing-mark=ISP1 check-gateway=ping

Same hosts as in the dst-address section?


/ip route

add dst-address=Host1 gateway=GW1 scope=10

add dst-address=Host2 gateway=GW2 scope=10

Thanks!
