Hey Mauricio,
 
Are you saying that you have a primary Internet connection, and you also
have this ADSL connection as a backup for the same office? If this is
the case, and you are running R55+, then why not use the Redundant ISP
features built into the product? You can specifiy a primary and backup
ISP connection and it will failover when it determines the primary link
is down. It is easy to configure and it is supported on SecurePlatform.
The only thing you need is an additional interface on your firewall to
plug your ADSL connection to.
 
Let me know if you need any further assistance.
 
Regards,
 
Jason

I have an ADSL Internet connection as a backup line in a small office,
and I want to configure our Secure Platform (Check Point) to work with
it when the main link fails. I just learned that SecurePlatform doesn't
support Dynamic Routing and Multicast.

Since the firewall doesn't support natively Multicast routing protocol,
They suggest to use GRE as it encapsulates the multicast traffic and
unicast it to the next hop peering multicast router, which encapsulates
the multicast packet and process it accordingly.

Can someone give me a clue how to setup this?
