I have had my WAN load-balancing and failover working well for close to a year now. However all my testing required me to unplug one WAN or the other to simulate a failure.
Last night a strong wind blew over our wireless WAN radio, so that signal obviously went down. The command "show load-balance watchdog" and "show load-balance status" both indicated that indeed my eth0 connection was inactive. I neglected to capture the exact output of those commands unfortunately.
Despite the route-test failing (ping 8.8.8.8) the fail over was not taking effect. When I went to the switch room and unplugged eth0, the fail over switched over almost immediately.
Any recommendations/suggestions on what to do?
