GS724T or GS716T trunking question

I have a build based on HP ProCurve switches. #2 switch has set VLANs as #1 both of them have own internet feeds and are #1 is trunked with #2 in case one of those internet feeds will fail or switches will fail there is still WAN communication from any of those VLANs.

Is it possible to do with 2 of GS724T or GS716?

Thanks

Hello Mr_Robot,

Welcome to the community!

We may need more information of the setup you currently have on these switches. Can you post a simple network diagram that shows the VLANs too and other info that may help?

  HP switches (both) configuration looks like
  
  where on red are marked ports which connect both switches (SW01 and SW02) between. Stack port 1/0/22 is not a real "stackable" as both switches works on their own - just a port with a connection between to "feed" SW02 with the WAN from SW01 porst 1/0/23 or 1/0/24
