Re: [WISPA] inexpensive non-2.4/5.8 backhaul?
But a Ubiuiti radio could do that for 500. A ptp230 or 250 could get close. Mikrotik could do that for probably 500. Double up on hardware and you're still way under budget.

I think Matt's advantage is the licensed freq. There is something to be said for putting it up and forgetting it. With unlicensed BH you are always going to be fighting the interference monster.

Re: [WISPA] Router Redundancy and /30 Ip address
Hi Gino, It can be done. It isn't well-documented, however. On Mikrotik, for example, you put a management IP address on each router's ethernet interface, used for speaking vrrp only, and then put the IP address(es) that deal with customers on the vrrp subinterface. For example: rtr-1 ether1 assigned 172.16.1.1/30 (management IP used to negotiate vrrp only) vrrp1 = master 24.5.20.17/30 - 24.5.20.18/30 = cust-rtr-1 24.5.21.1/30 - 24.5.21.1/30 = cust-rtr-2 etc rtr-2 ether1 assigned 172.16.1.2/30 (management IP used to negotiate vrrp only) vrrp1 = backup, configure same IP addresses as found on rtr-1's vrrp1 interface In this configuration, the two rtr's use 172.16.1.0/30 to negotiate vrrp master/backup only. While rtr-1 is up, only the vrrp1 interface on rtr-1 is active and the /30s that are assigned between you and your customers are active only on rtr-1's vrrp1 interface. The vrrp1 interface on rtr-2 is not active, and the IP addresses configured there aren't doing anything. If rtr-1 fails, then the vrrp1 interface configured on rtr-2 becomes active and rtr-2 begins responding to the IP addresses that were previously being responded to on rtr-1's vrrp interface. You do need to configure the same IPs on both router's vrrp1 interfaces. I use this as my preferred setup on Mikrotiks, as the documented way of having traffic go out the ether1 interface and in the vrrp1 interface can make firewall configs and troubleshooting unnecessarily complicated. In this way, all traffic goes through the vrrp1 interfaces and the ether1 interfaces are used exclusively for management/vrrp traffic.

Re: [WISPA] Router Redundancy and /30 Ip address
It's been a while since I have done anything with VRRP... Is the issue that you don't have a 3rd IP for the real interface on the second router? If so add a private network (/29 or better) so you can assign 3 IPs and then use that for the VRRP IPs. Use a script to handle switching the actual /30 IPs when vrrp1 goes down.

Re: [WISPA] Router Redundancy and /30 Ip address
+1 The IP addresses used for VRRP don't have to be the ones involved in routing (i.e. the highly available one(s)). We've used the same config you outline.

Re: [WISPA] Router Redundancy and /30 Ip address
Yes. Say you want redundancy between two routers connecting to a single upstream that provides you a single /30. You connect all three to the same switch/VLAN, assign private addresses for VRRP to the provider-facing interfaces, and assign your single public /30 address to the VRRP interface. If the primary router fails, the backup router's VRRP interface will become active, as will the address, and traffic will commence to the backup router. On your network facing side, you'll need to have OSPF or something else setup to advertise a default route (or whatever is appropriate), but using the distribute-default=if-installed-as-... option, lest the backup/inactive router advertise the default route as well. -Kristian On Thu, 2011-07-28 at 18:54 -0400, Josh Luthman wrote: You can just use bs private IPs right?
