Chris, yes this is possible. I am not sure how it is set up in the Cisco
world, but here are our parameters:
IPCONFIG SOURCEVIPA
VARSUBNETTING
IGNOREREDIRECT
DATAGRAMFWD
;
DEVICE LINK1 CLAW 1F0 TESTMVS C7513 NONE 200 200 4096 4096
LINK C7513 IP 0 LINK1
DEVICE LINK2 CLAW 1E0 TESTMVS C7206 NONE 200 200 4096 4096
LINK C7206 IP 0 LINK2
DEVICE VDEV VIRTUAL 0
LINK VLINK VIRTUAL 0 VDEV
;
HOME
10.129.0.69 VLINK
10.129.0.35 C7206
10.129.0.3 C7513
;
START LINK1
START LINK2
We use OMPROUTE and OSPF.
