Configuration Guide 20. IPv6 Routing
20.4.3 Example 2
This example shows a scenario in which an organization is connected to the public internet
through two ISPs. This is often called a Multi-WAN configuration and it provides high
availability and redundancy of the internet connection. It is demonstrated that both ISPs
advertise a default route through the BGP protocol, and are prioritized using manual
modification of the BGP Weight attribute.
