Configure ports as you need them, don’t mess about pre-defining blocks of ports 
for certain uses, or trying to group ports together based on some requirement. 
Within a line card or where all ports are functionally equal, the only guide 
about which port to use for which thing should be when that thing showed up, 
and if multiple show up at the same time, whichever port makes the cabling 
easier.

Trying to come up with some sort of policy about which ports to use for things 
is going to need to be broken and have exceptions at some point - it always 
does, and if you’ve trained people that the first half of the switch is one 
thing and the second another, they’re going to get confused and break something 
when that isn’t true anymore.

Don’t put routers or firewalls or whatever in the last port like some people 
do, they are just hosts like everything else and at some point you’re going to 
need to move from one to another to upgrade and now you’re using the second to 
last port. Same goes for other switches you might connect, same reasoning.

Re: [c-nsp] Multihoming

2015-09-01 Thread Michael Malitsky
Jason,

3560 has a small buffer, which may cause performance problems depending on the 
traffic patterns you see (microbursts are what overwhelms the buffer).  I would 
suggest looking at 3650 instead - newer and more powerful.  As someone else 
mentioned, you'll need the IPSERVICES license, which drives up the cost.  
Again, depending on the amount and pattern of traffic, a pair of 29XX with a 
pair of 3650s with LAN BASE licenses may be more functional and more economical.

Sincerely,
Michael Malitsky

Greetings,

Was interested in getting any pointers anyone might have about multihoming.  
I've got an ASN and am working on a /24 from ARIN now.  I was thinking about a 
pair of Cisco 3560's one for each provider and I was going to take default 
routes from each, one with a higher metric and announce my prefix over the 
primary link and pad the secondary link.  No customer or full tables needed.

I was thinking about vlan'ing each switch into half public half private side 
also.  Any pointers or tips or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.  
It's been a while since doing this type of stuff.

Thanks!

Hello Jason.
You can do BGP and multihoming on Cat 3560 since you got 2 byte AS number, with 
4 byte AS number you won’t.

You might need to get your IPv4 space from one of your upstream providers. 
As far as ARIN is concerned, that well is dry.


You will also want to start giving serious thought to IPv6.

I don't know how well 3560s handle BGP, but if you're just taking default 
routes from your upstreams, the resource needs are pretty light.  As the 
other person who responded mentioned - 4-byte ASNs could be an issue as 
well.


You can accept the default route from provider A with a default 
local-preference and the one from provider B with a lower local-pref.  For 
outbound advertisements, as you mentioned, you can prepend your AS a few 
times on your announcement to provider B.  You'll also want to run IBGP 
between the two 3560s.


When you say "half public, half private", can you clarify what you're 
trying to do?

3560's handle 4 byte ASNs just fine provided:

- You have sufficient flash.  4 byte ASN support in the Catalyst 
platforms was introduced in 15.2(1)E so this is the absolute minimum 
version you will need to run - and this image (in fact anything newer 
than 12.2(55)SE) requires 32M flash.


- You have the IPSERVICES image/license as BGP is not supported in IPBASE.

As you're only handling a handful of prefixes if you meet the 
requirements above you should be fine.

Re: [c-nsp] Multihoming

2015-08-31 Thread Jason Berenson

Justin,

You're right, a 4-byte ASN on the 3560's won't work.  I might see if 
ARIN will reassign me a 2-byte ASN instead.  If not, I'll have to go 
with something like a 28XX software based router and a pair of 2960G's 
for switches.  I was just hoping to do it all in two boxes instead of 4.


My plan is to have ports in front of the firewalls as well as ports 
behind the firewall.  I'll also create a separate VLAN for internal (non 
routed traffic only) between hosts but might just use another switch for 
that.


We may not have the same bandwidth from both providers, if we do then 
letting BGP decide would be fine, I think.


Jason.

[c-nsp] multihoming solution over two different ISP's

2011-08-08 Thread Martin T
At the moment I have a following setup:

http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/4227/252530.png

The ISP-A connection is the primary link and the ISP-B connection(over
WiMAX) is the backup one. In case the primary link fails, I physically
plug out the fiber-optical converter cable from my Cisco router(Cisco
1841) and insert the one from WiMAX device. In addition, I reconfigure
the IP parameters in the router. This is probably the most manual
multihoming possible :) I'm ready to upgrade my router so it
supports two Ethernet cables.

a) Is it somehow possible to automatically switch over to another one
connection in case the primary one fails. For example ping
www.google.com over a period of time and in case it doesn't respond,
automatically switch over to backup connection?

b) Is it somehow possible to have one static IP address while using
the services of two different IPSs?


While I'm afraid the latter is impossible, the first automatic
switchover should be somehow doable, shouldn't it? As I told, I'm
ready to invest into new equipment if it's necessary.

PS I'm aware, that probably the most elegant solution would be a BGP
sessions with ISP routers over different last-mile technologies. This
would provide fast failover and I could use one IP address.


What are the best practices for multihome connection over two different ISP's?

Re: [c-nsp] multihoming solution over two different ISP's

2011-08-08 Thread Aftab Siddiqui
Stick with multihoming with Single ISP. i.e. get 2 last miles with the ISP
and a public pool to advertise and manage the auto failover via BGP.

Secondly you can achieve multihoming with 2 ISP using IP SLA, though it is
not a best practice but surely workable. Take a look at the following link.

BGP is the best way to go, and you certainly can multihome with BGP using 
IP space assigned by one of the ISPs.  Lots of AS's do that.

You can do poor man's multihoming using 2 ISPs (no BGP) by doing 
reachability testing of something or things out on the internet, and 
changing your default gateway when you think the primary connection has 
failed.  You'll have to use NAT/PAT such that when you're going out 
through ISP-A, your outside NAT address is an ISP-A address, and when 
you're going out through ISP-B, your outside NAT address is an ISP-B 
address.  With a bit of policy routing, you can even keep both the ISP-A 
and ISP-B connections up and usable simultaneously.

Get a 2950 or even a 3524XL, use vlans and subinterfaces.

Use BGP if available.

Otherwise, if you are already using NAT, then this should work fine.

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3/12_3x/12_3xe/feature/guide/dbackupx.html

https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-8313

If you need redundancy and incoming IP reachability, and you cannot get 
BGP/Public IP addresses from your existing ISP's, you can obtain it from 
other ISP's, even if all they can offer you is a tunnel.

I am pretty new to this concept and would appreciate any guidance on how as

Can I achieve this when I have a /29 from ISP1 and do not have my own PI

smaller than a /24.  Even if you had a /24 from ISP1, you would then 
have to get their permission to have ISP2 advertise it.  Most aren't 
willing to do this.


Is a micro (/24) allocation from ARIN (if in the US) a possibility?  If 
so, you could then run BGP to multiple providers and make this a very 
simple configuration.  If not, you'll likely have to rely on 
application-layer redundancy.  You can prioritize MX records if you are 
hosting your mail on-site through ISP1's ip addressing (what you stated 
seemed a bit unclear), and you could probably do some round-robin DNS 
entries for web hosting, but it won't be perfect.

You need PI space to do this. Because each ISP can only route his own PA spaces 
plus the PI spaces from his customers.

Maybe there could be a solution with doing some NAT on ISP2 to let your PA 
space  from ISP1 look like PA space from ISP2.
This could do redundancy in upstream direction but not in downstream.

But if you have some public servers you need PI space.

Re: [c-nsp] Multihoming

2010-09-15 Thread Heath Jones
You could probably get away with a second provider if you implement NAT and
don't really need to provide services to the outside world from that
location. For example if it was an office connection and you really just
needed internet access with some redundancy.

If things are more complicated than that - for instance if you are hosting
incoming vpn connections, web services etc from that site, you really should
look into getting your own IP space when you start talking about multiple
providers, for instance if ISP1 goes down and you are providing these
services, you are pretty much screwed. As Walter suggested, you can play
with DNS a bit and move things around - but it is a very manual time
consuming process and services will be unworkable during the transition.

Jon there seems to be a bit of a common belief that advertising a /24 or
some prefix that has been assigned by a provider, out to another provider,
is bad practise. I don't get it either and haven't seen issues myself.

The only scenario I can think of is (in some odd configurations) when the
original provider sees part of their own network being advertised by another
ISP, they filter it and it breaks connectivity, or the original provider's
igp contains that prefix somehow already.. ?

This is done quite a bit, as (again, I'm only familiar with practices in 
the ARIN region) this is basically the only way a small organization (ISP 
or end user) could multihome in the past.  ARIN just adopted a policy 
allowing multihomed end users to get a PI /24.  So that's an option now as 
well.

original provider sees part of their own network being advertised by another

Ideally, both ISPs would be aware of your intentions to multihome and not 
be dumb enough to filter your announcement via the other ISP.  It wouldn't 
surprise me if that sort of filtering has happened though.


Of course, it wouldn't surprise me if your ISP broke your prefix filter, 
didn't use prefix filters, lost your interface config, assigned your 
interface /30 to another customer, or fundamentally altered your 
route-map (if they have one) such that they stopped accepting some of your 
routes.  I've seen all these things happen.

It looks like this subject has been beat to death so I'll skip the usual
about obtaining a /24 form ARIN and a public ASN.  Global load-balancing is
an option as it allows you to fail over your DNS entries to the second
providers IP space.  This pretty much negates the need for BGP if all you
were using it for was failover.  There are also companies that offer global
load-balancing as a service so you don't have to worry about managing the
box itself.  It's DNS based so the load-balancer itself can be anywhere in
the world technically.  Redundancy is usually taken care of as well.

2010-09-15 Thread Keegan Holley
One last comment.  There are alot of people suggesting that you find a way
to advertise the /29 to the other ISP.  This is not possible.  The ISP that
gave it to you probably isn't willing to de-aggregate it when sending it to
the internet and the ISP that needs to accept it probably doesn't accept
blocks under a certain size to keep their routing table sizes under control.
 If you look at a route server in another AS you'll probably only see a /21
or better that contains your block.  ISP's normally advertise aggregates
only unless the customer was assigned a large block (/24 or better for most)
and requested that they do so.  Then they advertise both.

Something I've been considering is to have the customer build a GRE tunnel (its

We could then route their public IP space over either connection.

It doesn't give all the same benefits of BGP (for example, if something happens

but I want to know If is possible my router can work well with 128
DRAM only taking default routes.
If I had to buy more memory  (it is expensive for me)   where I can
find third party memory as kingston or other well-known manufacturers?
Can Anyone give me some links.
For peering with my other ISP can I buy a router 1841 with 128 or more
DRAM memory or I should purchase other router 2801.  We have both
circuits with 4MB for internet access.
