In our office, we have now USB LTE dongle (Huawei E3372h-153 LTE - HiLink) which works great with RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN.
So: RB2011 is connected via ETHER1 to VDSL2 modem which is in bridge mode. RB2011 act as PPPOE Client.
Now, I configured LTE modem as usual. So, I added DHCP Client and did NAT on lte1 Interface. Everything works great.
Normally, lte1 interface is disabled. When I enable it, I don't need to switch off pppoe-out1 interface, because RB2011 is automatically giving lte1 interface route distance 0 and pppoe-out1 is always at route distance 1. So, when I'm enabling lte1 interface - all office works on lte connection. When I disable it, all office works on normal VDSL2 connection. It think this is the reason why it's working this way.
Now, I wanted to do a Failover thing, so in case my main VDSL2 connection is dead, RB2011 will switch on lte1 interface and voilla, I now have lte Internet in the office.
So this is my script:
Code:Select all

Main question is: How to adjust the script so it'll check (ping few hosts) with VDSL2 connection (which may be dead or not), not LTE1?
So:
1) VDSL2 is dead.
2) Script enables LTE1 interface.
3) Script checks few host using VDSL2 connection:
a) if can ping them - script just disable LTE1 and it auto fall back to VDSL2
b) if still can't ping them - do nothing.
Or maybe there is another way to do it?
Sorry for long writing.
