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! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
