Blocking outgoing packets while specifying destination address as
source is probably not going to do what you expect.

There is some misunderstanding or maybe you use it incorrectly. Remote
node cannot run "failover to srv-1" - remote node is external server.
What can possibly failover to srv-1 is the pacemaker instance that
performs communication with the remote node.

Which is correct as far as I can tell. The only way to resolve the
missing node is to fence it. Now you may be meaning "failover
pacemaker instance that performs monitoring". According to your logs
both main nides srv-1 and srv-2 remained connected, cluster had quorum
so there was no reason to do it.

If possible, it is better to block packets on your switch. Moving the
switch port into another VLAN will effectively isolate your host.

Again - remote node cannot and will not fail over. Remote node is
either online or offline. The resources there are active on offline
node will failover after pacemaker confirmed successful node fencing.

Whether the monitoring instance (i.e. resource ocf:pacemaker:remote)
can failover if connection to remote node is lost I do not know.
