Good afternoon, I've have a datacenter that I have failed over to use our secondary link to the internet. At this location we only accept a default route from each carrier. Outbound was simply set with local pref.
Inbound, I'm now sending a load of prepends and a last resort community. My clients connecting to various hosted services are generally using two major UK business internet carriers. One carrier - is working as expected and I can see best paths on the looking glass I expect. However the Other carrier's looking glass - which is what the other 40 percent of clients use, is using the inbound route with multiple prepends and the last resort community. I have a ticket open with the carrier I wanted to make secondary inbound- (to check communities are being received and are correct). However, I was hoping to do some investigation myself for my own understanding as much as trying to fix this issue - while I wait for their reply. I imagine many people on this list have decent visibility as you probably have multiple peerings. What tools are out there that may help me with my limited visibility? I want to see the how the carriers that my clients are using are connected to my own upstream ISP's - I'm not sure how to go about this. Any tips or knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Also - I'm not sure what can be mentioned in these emails - in terms of who these carriers are. Thank you, Nick _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
