Hello,
i wonder if i am doing it correctly.
i have two bgp router connection that will go on a firewall.
how am i expected to configure everything to enable failover with load
balancing?
(ascii art time)
[BGP1] [BGP2]
| |
|e1 |e2
-----------------------
| FW |
-----------------------
|
|
-----------------------
| LAN |
-----------------------
i have configured it with
e1: A.B.C.2 gw:A.B.C.1
e2: D.E.F.2 gw:D.E.F.1
the default gw is A.B.C.1
and follow the guide here:
http://www.openbsd.org/papers/linuxtag06-network.pdf
that's my current config :)
AS 65042 --> private
router-id A.B.C.1 --> ip on wan1
network P.U.B.L/24 --> public lan
neighbor A.B.C.1 { --> bgp router1 from cogent
descr "ISP A"
remote-as 179
}
neighbor D.E.F.1 { --> bgp router2 from level3
descr "ISP B"
remote-as 3549
}
and, everything work :D
but, what's happen if e1 fail?
i can't reach lan (i have nat on P.U.B.L/24)
is that expected to work with some sort of failover or i have to do other
steps for that?
tnx, i am very beginner on that :)
