Hello all,
I do not yet have an Edgerouter product but am exploring if this product line can suit my needs, so I would like to seek your expertise on this matter (currently looking at the Edgerouter 5 or 8 port).
I am looking for a device that can:
1. Support up to 4 ISPs with loadbalancing and failover for internet traffic.
2. Can serve as a PPTP server (Seems to be no issues with this based on my research)
3. Do basic QoS/bandwidth restriction to avoid people in my organization hogging bandwidth (Seems to be no issues with this based on my research and the latest router OS)
4. Create a redundant VPN/IPSEC over at most 4 WAN links to another device (another edgerouter?) at another location -- maximum of three locations.
The idea of #4 is to create a VPN that cannot be broken while at least one ISP is still up at each site.
In my mind, the tunnels can be configured as follows:
IPSEC Tunnel Setup
** if a connection cannot be established, the devices will try to establish the VPN via the next rule below
Device A WAN1 <---> Device B WAN1
Device A WAN1 <---> Device B WAN2
Device A WAN1 <---> Device B WAN3
Device A WAN1 <---> Device B WAN4
Device A WAN2 <---> Device B WAN1
Device A WAN2 <---> Device B WAN2
Device A WAN2 <---> Device B WAN3
Device A WAN2 <---> Device B WAN4
And the same for Device A WAN3 and WAN4, and for the other site as well.
Are what I want doable on the Edgerouter? I have close to no networking/CLI experience but linux CLI is not foreign to me.
Thank you!
