    Hi, 

     

    DC1- Controller    ------------- L3 network --------------- DC2 Controller

    ( Master-Master)                                                           ( Master- Backup)

     -------------------------------- VRRP over GRE--------------------------------

            |                                                                                      |

         GRE                                                                                GRE

            |                                                                                      |

     

    Site 1- Controller                                                           Site 2 - Controller

     

    Guest Vlan x                                                                   Guest Vlan x 

     

    Need help with setting up the above topology whereby we have two sites controllers and two Master/Backup controller separated by layer 3 network. The requirement is to tunnel (GRE) Guest VLAN from site 1 and 2 to  active Master controller at DC1 and automatically failover to Master -Backup controller at DC2 in the event DC1 controller goes down. Is this possible. Help , highly appreciated. Thanks

    There is no other real option, that is why it was introduced in 6.3
