Re Routing IP address


Hello, I'm in the middle of trying to figure something out to see if it can be used as a work around.

I have the following setup:

Location A:

Internet -> ISP 1 -> Firewall 1 (external IP address) -> Web Server 1 (internal IP address)

Location B:

Internet -> ISP 1 -> ISP 2 -> Firewall 2 (external IP address) -> Web Server 2 (internal IP address)

I want to find out if I can failover to another location without having to make changes on the DNS server. Just by redirecting traffic from ISP 1 router to ISP 2 router.

Can you explain, what is "failover" in your case?
