Recursive Routing + Failover - Mikrotik RouterOS v7

#mikrotik #failover #recursiveRouting

Failover is the ability to seamlessly and automatically switch to a reliable backup system. If the primary network fails, the system switches automatically to another network that is sitting on standby.

All working, i've watched many videos on how to set this up and was always confused but your video made it as clear as Mikrotik will allow it to be.

It was great helpful, I'm Brazilian and I didn't find any explanation on the sites in Brazil, thanks for you help me. Keep going.
I'm sorry my English is not good.

Thanks, like.
It works great in RouterOS 7.5, though that screen refresh bug is still there.
Tip: you can use Netwatch to clear existing connections when the routes swap is done, to speed up the transition.

11:37 This setup assumes that you know your gateways. That is often not the case. You just want to check your 2 WAN-connections without having to set (changing) gateways.

Thanks for the great video, not only explaining failover routing in RouterOS, but also highlighting the change in getting recursive routing to work properly in ROS7! 👍 I also hadn't previously noticed the new check-gateway options... definitely going to have to dig into those.

Really great video, I followed Mikrotik's official guide, yet I couldn't configure failover properly. This time I did it in less than 20 minutes. Thank you a lot!

Thank you so much for the elaborate explanation. You along with The Network Berg are the best!!! Can you also explain how to do recursive routing with policy based routing? I have successfully been able to do this following your tutorial, also the policy based routing watching your video. However I want to combine the 2. Please help! Thanks a lot and stay blessed!

Great lesson. Thank you coming from the Philippines.

Hi! Thanks!
I was only able to do Recursive failover in this new version 7 with your explanation.
I updated my equipment to 7.5 and I was not able to do it.
In version 6.49 the default route I kept with the same scope as the monitoring route Ex:10 and it worked, now in the new version the scope should be bigger.
Thanks!

[igorzatti]

Great video, explaining about how to router os choose the routes and emphasizing about scope helps me a lot, thanks

[fabiojrsantos]

What a wonderful explanation, it cleared all the doubts I had, besides simplifying the whole process, I am very grateful. Have a wonderful day.

[galvesribeiro]

HUGE THANK YOU! Spent a lot of time thinking that the target-scope should be equal to scope. That changed on the RouterOS v7. Thank you very much! :)

Need a video showing how to do this with ISP dynamically assigned addresses.

[SipCompany]

My compliments ! Very clear and simple explanation.

[youngrp]

Great! Just a tip: there is no need to monitor ISP 2
