WAN and Dial Backup Setup 5-7
3. Dial-backup route (see the Backup Remote Node Setup chapter)
For example, if the normal route has a metric of "1" and the traffic-redirect route has a metric of "2" and dial-
backup route has a metric of "3", then the normal route acts as the primary default route. If the normal route
fails to connect to the Internet, the ZyWALL tries the traffic-redirect route next. In the same manner, the
ZyWALL uses the dial-backup route if the traffic-redirect route also fails.
If you want the dial-backup route to take first priority over the traffic-redirect route or even the normal route,
all you need to do is set the dial-backup route’s metric to "1" and the others to "2" (or greater).
