Hi Forum,

I have 4 sites using ISA as a proxy to the internet. Is it possible for me to configure in such a way that if the proxy server for one site failed, the clients can be pointed to another proxy at a remote site to route to the internet?

Thank you,
py

Yes, you can create alternate ISA Firewalls if one of the upstream ISA Firewalls goes down using Web routing rules.

HTH,
Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for your reply. I will go and search for the web routing document. by the way, is that automatic? one fail, the other one take over immediately? It has to be done on the client side right?

Thanks,
