BOVPN Failover

Good Day,
I have a client with a main office with 2 WAN connections configured to failover. They have a branch office VPN to an office with only 1 WAN connection.

Is there a way to configure the BOVPN to failover? The reading I saw seemed to imply they needed 2 WAN connections at BOTH locations and the config won't allow me to specify the same tunnel in two gateways.

Both sites have M270 appliances.

thanks in advance,
steve

    Hi @sjonesin1

    You'd want to set the BOVPN gateways up so that they look like this on each firewall:

    Site A
    Site A <--> Site B ISP1
    Site A <--> Site B ISP2

    Site B
    Site B ISP 1 <--> Site A
    Site B ISP 2 <--> Site A
