I have a Windows XP machine running OpenVpn 2.0.9. It is a single server to multi client setup. It has been working this way for years. We recently added a backup internet connection to the building and I would like to add it to the existing configuration for failover. My setup would be as follows:
ISP1 -- / \ -- ISP -- Clients
VPN Server l cloud l
ISP2 -- \ / -- ISP -- Clients
I was not involved in the current configuration, but I have moved it to a newer machine.
How would I add the second ISP as a failover only? I have been through many different posts, mostly dealing with the failover not working correctly. I would be fine with an auto switchover or even a manual switchover. Based off of the posts I have been through I'm leaning towards a second .ovpn file that I would manually run when needed. My problem there is I have been through the current server config and I can't figure out if I even need to bother with a second configuration. I just see that it listens on port 1194. Does that mean I don't need to do anything to the server config? Maybe I just need to copy the client config and change the public address for the backup connection.
Any thoughts?
