   @p Do you know what is the best way to switch between ips on a dns when one goes out?

     @p If one ip goes down (the main one) i need it to fall over to the back up. The backup is the network contented to a cell backup then connected to a vm and thats the backup ip.

     @dcc You mean like doing failover at the level of the DNS server? Or do you mean doing failover for DNS servers themselves?

     @p Basiclly, i have a cell back up that will be ssh tunneled though to a vps when the main internet is dead, now the problem is at the dns level on how to decide what the ip is. Since just adding two ip's to dns is just going to do round robin.

     @dcc Okay, okay, so you want the *site* to have failover and you wanna do it at the DNS level.
     
     You could set a low-ish TTL (300, maybe 60) and have the always-available box do the health checks. When it detects the fast-but-unreliable IP is down, it starts forwarding connections to the other one and that machine does the DNS update to make it start. When it detects that the main IP is back, start forwarding connections to the main one and do the DNS update again, at which point it should start getting less traffic but should have a smooth enough transition.

     @dcc Yeah, I was assuming you were. (You probably don't wanna do this over DNS if you can avoid it, but if it's what you've got, it's what you've got.) PowerDNS is ideal for this, you can use Postgres of sqlite3 and just update a DB. There are services that do that, like :bezos: has Route53, but it's a pain.

     Why not set up said vps as main ip and set up a reverse proxy? Then if your heartbeat script detects that one ip is down it just changes the reverse proxy settings to use the other .

     as much as i do not prefer bezos-web, route53 with weighted dns routing policy is what you want. if you want to try it i can make it painless for you with automagic. connect on other channel

     @m0xEE @p > why even do this
     Netowrk outages happen from time to time so im going to use the cell back up i have to also keep up my server on the web. As for dynamic dns, that makes no sense, the backup it self does not have port fowrding (or any interface for that matter). Hosting my own name server would be nice since i can much more easily update the dns than using my dns providers api.

     @p @dcc
     But it's not something like load balancing, why even do this? Why not set up monitoring of main IP and when it goes down, do a dyndns update to the backup one? And yes, of course TTL should be low enough so it propagates quickly.
     Hosting your own nameserver just for this is an overkill IMO :marseyshrug:

     @m0xEE @p Now atm im creating a bash script that will monitor the main ip, check if its down and them update the dns if it infact is down. Then do the opposite if its back up.

     How dare you! Go for Nagios or Zabbix straight away, and also setup up notifications so it sends you an email and even a short message to you cell phone when something happens. Remember not to use your carrier's API, use an old Siemens S45 phone with a spare SIM-cart to send out messages. You may of course also set up XMPP notifications if that's your kink — but that would be too easy IMO :marseyhacker:
