route special connection to 2nd internet gateway

Sun Jun 28, 2020 9:29 pm

Hi there,

there is an easy setup LAN as you can see here:

Now I try to add a second internet connection only for server backups to a specific cloud host as you can see here:

lets say cloud host has IP: 111.222.333.444

Mikrotik-Router:
ether1: 2nd internet gateway
ether2: LAN switch
ether3: LAN server

1)
I bridged ether2 and ether3 (maybe this is already one of the mistakes?)

2)
I tried to mangle with prerouting chain and "mark routing" all connections to 111.222.333.444 and gave these packets a routing mark "backup".
After that I added a new route for the marked packets to 2nd internet gateway.
https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Policy_Base_Routing

The problem is that no packets are marked. As a result of this the server still uses the default internet connection to connect to cloud backup server.

Can you please help me to get it working?

Regards,

Problem solved!

I had to add a static route on the server:
route add 111.222.333.444 MASK 255.255.255.255 192.168.1.15
192.168.1.15 = IP of Bridge in Mikrotik-Router over ether 2/3
