policy based gateway(dual) for host ip - possible ?.

macwhizard

I don't know if this can be achieved on L3, here is the scenario.

I'm having a L3 switch with connections to internet thru a firewall, point-point link(same as lan), local application servers and a small local lan.

I need some 20 users to use firewall lan ip as the default gateway and occasionally L3 switch ip as the gateway for accessing point-point link and local servers.(don't ask why )

Now if i use route-map (PBR) and use firewall ip as default gateway, i cannot access local lan. Also i don't want to add any routes in the PCs.

Is there a way of achieving this on the L3 itself ?. like two gateways for one or a set of hosts in some kind of policy group ?.

Many thanks,

Why not just make the gateway the switch and have it have routes to the internet through the firewall and to the local servers? Let the router route.
