I have two Internet connections one of which has a greater downlink
speed and the other has a greater uplink speed. They use different IP
address blocks and I want to use the greater downlink connection as the
DEFAULT outbound route. If the default route is not available I want
to use the other connection. Also I want to use the faster uplink
connection to receive data.

Details:

I have a Cisco 2600 series with 3 interfaces and Cisco 3500 series
switch. The preferred uplink connection connects directly to the
Internet and I would use these IP addresses on my external VLAN. I
also have an internal VLAN which I would like to connect the faster
downlink connection to. The internal VLAN connection is front ended
with a Linksys router and uses non-routable IP addresses i.e.
192.168.2.0.

I want to setup the router with real IP addresses for all three
interfaces i.e. Internet recognized and I want to connect the internal
192 front ended network directly into the switch.

The servers would have real Internet and 192 addresses multi-homes to
the internal and external VLANs on the switch.

QUESTION(S):

Can I set a default route on the router for the directly connected to
the Internet and a deffault route on the switch for the 192 connected
network?

Would this type of conneciton fail over to the direct Internet
connection if the 192 connection was unavailable?

Note: We would use Internet DNS entries to force incoming connections
to the direct Internet connection AND HOPE THAT THE SWITCHES DEFAULT
ROUTE WOULD CONTROL THE DOWNSTREAM.

Will this work?

After thinking about this a little more, I realize that I can set a
default route and a persistent route.
