NAT failover
-
Is there a way to have a NAT rule forward to another host if the original host goes down?
Example:
Http traffic from WAN interface NAT'd to Web Server
NAT setup for Web Server @ 192.168.x.5
Backup Web Server @ 192.168.x.6
if Web Server fails to respond then NAT rule then traffic gets NAT'd to Backup Web ServerI need to do something like this because I have limited public IP addresses. Any suggestions?

Take a look at the loadbalancer.
Inbound loadbalancing can work as failover too afaik. -
Correct, Failover or Loadbalancing.
