Here is my situation.
I have an RB433 between a CiscoRouter and Firewall with the following layout
Internet--------CiscoRouter(1.1.1.1)------RB433------(2.2.2.1)Firewall-------3.3.3.0/24
I have routes as follows from the RB433
route 0.0.0.0/0 to gateway 1.1.1.1 (Cisco Router to Internet)
2.2.2.1 3.3.3.0/24路由到网关(Firewall)
The problem I am having is that if the firewall goes offline, eth2 on the RB433 goes down and route 3.3.3.0/24 goes inactive. The problem is because of the default route the RB433 tries to route traffic to 3.3.3.0 to the CiscoRouter using the default route, then the static route on the Cisco router sends it back to RB433 and thus all inbound traffic bounces between the RB433 and the Cisco router until the TTL expires. I know this is mainly asthetic, but I would prefer to get a destination unreachable from the RB433 rather than using the static route and getting a routing loop.
Any thoughts on this?
