Dual homed bgp route perference help

Good Morning, sir
I have a question regarding bgp route preference. 
We have multi-homed BGP on remote site. 
Let's call this site , site_a has verizon and at&t MPLS connection using bgp. 
Currently, at&t route is preferred using as path prepend method. 
We have addition AS number prepended on link to Verizon to prefer at&t route. 
At this time, verizon is idle and not being used. 
We would like to utilize this network to pass backup traffic. 
We have source and destination address that we would like to pass through Verizon (out backup) link. 
Any idea how I can do this? 
I created the source/destination with ACL and created route-map matching that ACL and tweaked the local preference. 
and since only major route is listed under 'show ip bgp' and not the specific route which I would like to influence, 
I didn't see the tweaked route on routing table. 
Any idea, anyone? 
Thanks

Getting the specific route into the routing depends on what is there ie. -
if there is already a route with same prefix and subnet mask in your IP routing table then you are fine.
If there isn't and your routing table does not have even more specific routes covering the whole subnet you want to advertise then you could use a static route either pointing to the next hop IP or the interface on the router used to get to that subnet.
Then you can use a "network ..." statement under your BGP configuration to advertise it and use a route map to only advertise it down the backup link.

  • BGP in Dual Homing setup not failing over correctly

    Hi all,
    we have dual homed BGP connections to our sister company network but the failover testing is failing.
    If i shutdown the WAN interface on the primary router, after about 5 minutes, everything converges and fails over fine.
    But, if i shut the LAN interface down on the primary router, we never regain connectivity to the sister network.
    Our two ASR's have an iBGP relationship  and I can see that after a certain amount of time, the BGP routes with a next hop of the primary router get flushed from BGP and the prefferred exit path is through the secondary router. This bit works OK, but i believe that the return traffic is still attempting to return over the primary link...
    To add to this, we have two inline firewalls on each link which are only performing IPS, no packet filtering.
    Any pointers would be great.
    thanks

    Hi John,
    right... please look at the output below which is the partial BGP table during a link failure...
    10.128.0.0/9 is the problematic summary that still keeps getting advertised out when we do not want it to during a failure....
    now there are prefixes in the BGP table which fall within that large summary address space. But I am sure that they are all routes that are being advertised to us from the eBGP peer...

    i would not expect summary addresses to still be advertised if the specific prefixes are coming from eBGP... am i wrong?
    thanks for everything so far...

  • RDS Gateway Best practices Dual-Homed?

    Good Day,
    I am wondering what is a typical amount of time others see when end users launch a RemoteApp session that goes through the RDS Gateway.
    Our two RDS Gateway servers (entire environment is W2k12R2) seem slow to me. They are both Dual-Homed and with a Nic on the DMZ and Internal side of the network. Maybe I would be better off disabling the Internal Nics and reconfiguring the firewall rules
    so that everything routes through the DMZ nic?
    Steve J.

    Hi Steve,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Best practice for any server is depends on your environment scenario as you need to decide whether to place the gateway in DMZ or allow 443 to be opened to the internal network. Placing the RDS Gateway in DMZ is more secure, you can have more information from
    beneath article.

    This is the wrong forum for this topic, but I'll assist.
    Without configuration sync enabled, you would have to configure both Nexus 5K exactly the same for the FEX port before traffic will forward.
    Configuration sync would help you in only having to configure it once, but I have had mixed results using configuration sync so I tend not to use it in my deployments.

  • Time Capsule 2TB vs. Netgear WNDR3300 RangeMax Dual Band Wireless Router

    Hey everyone, I just bought the Time Capsule 2TB since I was running out of space at home and wanted a solution for both PC and MAC machines. Upon installation I learned that the TC can actually be my Wireless Router! Right? For some reason I never knew it could do this - I thought it could just be a wireless harddrive.
    Ok, so I already had a wireless router (the Netgear WNDR3300 RangeMax Dual Band Wireless Router). So my questions are the following:
    1) Is the TC a completely safe and equal replacement for the Netgear Wireless Router that I have?
    2) Currently the TC is setup as a wireless HD on my network (where the Netgear is the router) and the transfer speeds I am seeing are pretty darn slow! I am assuming it is because the data needs to go from LAPTOP -> Router -> TC. Right? So my question is, if the TC is setup as the actual wireless router, then would the data transfers be faster? Since I would only have to go from LAPTOP -> TC to store the data.
    One more side question regarding the TC and connecting a printer:
    3) If the printer has scanning capabilities, then where does this scanned document file go when the printer is connected to the TC ?
    Thanks for your help!
    John

    John, welcome to the discussions!
    I can provide a few thoughts and hopefully, others will as well.
    "1) Is the TC a completely safe and equal replacement for the Netgear Wireless Router that I have?"
    It appears to offer essentially the same features and performance at a glance. If you are using ethernet devices, the TC has 3 LAN ports, while there are 4 on the Netgear.
    "So my question is, if the TC is setup as the actual wireless router, then would the data transfers be faster?"
    I think it will be about the same. You could of course hook up the TC and try it, but I doubt that you would notice any measurable difference.
    "3) If the printer has scanning capabilities, then where does this scanned document file go when the printer is connected to the TC ?"
    Assuming that your printer is compatible with the TC you will be able to print, but advanced functions such as copying, scanning, maintenance, etc. will not work. You will need to connect your all-in-one directly to your computer if you need these other services.

  • PBR Using Tracked BGP Route

    Hello Guys,
    My scenario is:
    2 Sites interconnected by 2 MPLS Links and BGP between the routers.
    I need some help to force some traffic to be routed using one Link based on Protocol or TCP Port.
    But if the link goes down, I need the traffic to be send using another link.
    I want to do a PBR using track that validates a specific BGP Route or BGP Neighbor.
    Can someone tell me some tips for this case?
    Best Regards.
    Heleno Fagundes

    Hi,
    For your two concerns.
    **2 Sites interconnected by 2 MPLS Links and BGP between the routers
     Do you have some sort of network diagram ????
    **I want to do a PBR using track that validates a specific BGP Route or BGP Neighbor.
    We can always apply a track and an IP sla monitoring an IP address which the router is receiving from its BGP peer which you wish to monitor.
    I am sure if you provide me sample diagram/config i'll be able to give some more descriptive answer.

  • Monitoring a BGP route and AS-PATH.

    Hello.
    I need to receive a SNMP trap when a BGP route, received with a specific AS-PATH, disappears from routing table.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.
    Andrea

    You can use EEM for this. Check out the cisco beyond web site for sample scripts that may help you do this.
    A company that I used to work for, www.magnus.net had a mature EEM solution for doing this for large network environments. They took a standalone router and using EEM turned it into a route monitor.  It would send out notifications when BGP routes of defined attributes like AS-Path diasappeared from routing tables.  It was driven by an excel spreadsheet as inputs. It was written by a super CCIE engineer.

  • Troubleshooting with IOS BGP and IOS XR BGP - routing table Empty

    Hi
    actually we tried to make a neigborhood between ASR9000 and Cisco 7600, we have the neigborhood active but on routing tables from ASR only have the networks locals or connected doesn´t learn anything from BGP 7600
    the diagram is this:
    When try to know the routes on ASR9000 from Cisco 7609 happen the follow
    the neighbor is UP from Cisco 7600 and ASR 9000 but the routing table is empty.
    the config on cisco 7600 is:
    router bgp 2006
    neighbor 172.16.14.6 remote-as 64512
    address-family ipv4
    neighbor 172.16.14.6 activate
    the config on cisco ASR9000 is:
    router bgp 64512

    neighbor 172.16.14.5
      remote-as 2006
      address-family ipv4 unicast
    Help us
    Best Regards

    Another important one is the fact that in XR you need to have RPL policies (even if they only have a "pass-all" functionality) to accept inbound/outbound routes in eBGP.
    Check the article on the asr9000 unequal cost multipath that has some sample BGP outputs and show command verifications that may help also.
    If not the case, get us the XR config from the A9K side.
    Also what does the bgp table on teh IOS side look like? as Richard suggests, there doesnt seem to be anything injected by the 7600 itself.

  • Configuring Dual-homed servers for redundancy to 6509s

    I am looking for assitance in properly configuring dual-homed servers for redundancy to two CatOS based 6509s. My search for information on how to do this has been unsuccessful to date, so any help you can provide would be most appreciated.
    Do I need any special hardware/software on the 6509s and/or on the servers?
    Thanks, in advance.
    John

    A lot depends on the kind of servers you have and the NIC teaming algorithms they support. Usually two or more NICs can be teamed in either a fault tolerant configuration (with one primary NIC) or in transmit load balancing configuration. Both these configurations allow the NICs to be connected to separate L2 switches so in case your servers do support such kind of teaming all you need is to have both NICs in the same VLAN and ensure L2 connectivity between the Catalyst 6509s. I recommend you research this from the server perspective also and like everything else test it before production deployment.

  • How to replace Nexus5596 with dual-homing N2K

    What is the correct process to replace a FEX parent switch with dual-homing fex?
    Traffic should not be interrupted.        

    Hi
    Do you have VPC between Parent Switches & are you running VPC on dual homed FEX fabric ports. ?
    If yes Below is the procedure,
    1)  boot the replacement switch without VPC, peer-links & FEX ports connected to it.
    2)  Make sure it has same Software version matches with the peer switch.
    3)  enable Pre-Provisioning for slots with appropriate FEX model.
    , here find the guide:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus5000/sw/system_management/521_n1_1/b_5k_System_Mgmt_Config_521N11_chapter_0100.html#task_05BB53AD7AFB49CF9A8E4A5C6C37CB38
    So, on the replacement switch you will pre-provision the Fabric Extender and configure the ports so it will be ready when you add the module to the RMA SW.
    Please make sure you put the appropriate FEX model on the provision slot, otherwise, when connected it will not come Online
    Example, FEX 110:
    N5K(config)# slot 110
    N5K(config-slot)#provision model N2K-C2248T
    4) Now  keep all ports at Shut down state Then Configure Entire switch that includes FEX host ports, FEX Fabric Ports & VPC peer-link, VPC Domain Configuration.
    keep FEX host ports in shut state.
    5)  keep VPC Role priority on existing switch lower than , new switch
    6) Connect Peer-link ports to Peer switch & wait till VPC Comes up-
    7) Then connect Fabric ports from FEX to the pre-configured ports on replacement switch
    After it comes online Unshut FEX host ports.
    I got similar steps here as well
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus5000/sw/operations/n5k_vpc_ops.html#wp425197
    NOTE: I followed same process however, few ping drops were seen....arnd ( 5- 6 ping loss) only on few hosts...

  • EIGRP vs BGP route path selection scenario

    I am looking for a routing solution to the following scenario.  It is a fairly simple design. 
    I have two WAN connections between sites A and B.  One is a 20 Meg Metro Ethernet Circuit running EIGRP.  The other is a 10 Meg MPLS running BGP.  What do I need to do in my configuration to make sure that the 20 Meg connection is the chosen path based off the fact that it has better speed and bandwidth?  It appears to me that the MPLS is the preferred path even though it is slower.

    If each router is receiving advertisements for the same networks/subnet masks from both BGP and EIGRP it will always choose the BGP routes because they have a lower AD ie. 20 vs EIGRP 90.
    Doesn't matter what the bandwidth is.
    If you want to prefer the 20Mbps links then there are a number of options -
    1) if you can summarise each sites subnets then advertise the summary via BGP and the more specific via EIGRP.  More specific will be chosen even before AD is taken into account.
    2) change the AD of either BGP or EIGRP so EIGRP ends up with the lower AD
    3) run BGP on both links although you would still need to manipulate the attributes to make sure the link you want is used.

  • Query on BGP route distribution

    Hello Everyone
    In the below scenario (GNS3), IBGP peering enabled between R1-R2, R1-R3, R2-R3 and EBGP peering enabled between R2-R4,R3-R5,R4-R6,R5-R7. OSPF enabled as IGP. Scenario attached for reference.
    The problem I've observed in R1 is not getting entire BGP routing table for destinations 30.x.x.x/40.x.x.x.
    I'm able to see only best routes in R1 BGP routing table, but alternate valid routes are not visible in its topology table.
    R1#sh ip bgp
    BGP table version is 81, local router ID is 100.100.2.1
    *>i30.30.1.0/24     10.10.1.2                0    100      0 200 300 ?

    *> 100.100.2.0/24   0.0.0.0                  0         32768 i
    More confusing part to me is when I disable IBGP peering between R2-R3 or shutdown interface between R2-R3 or else if I disable ospf in R1,R2 & R3 routers , I'm able to see both best route and alternate valid route in BGP topology table.
    R1#sh ip bgp

    Hi Milin & Renan,
    Thanks for your replies. To narrow down the problem, I’ve shut down the 40.40.x.x network.
    Now between R2-R3, R3 is not advertising 30.30.X.X network to R2, but whereas R2 is advertising 30.30.X.X network to R3. Why R3 is not advertising 30.30.X.X (route via 200 400 300) to R2.
    R2#sh ip bgp ( No alternate route)

  • Single Homed or Dual Homed FEX

    With the ability to do enhanced VPCs now on the FEXs is there any benefit to have a mixture of having of single attached FEXs and dual homed FEXs?
    Here are some benefits as I see them
    Single homed FEX is easier to trouble shoot as the topology is not as complex.
    A dual homed FEX will support both dual attached hosts and a single attached host. So this means we only have one topology to deal with (everything dual homed)
    Any other pros or cons?         
    Thanks

    If you have any servers with only one uplink, you want dual homed FEXes for redundancy.
    Also, it depend on the number of FEXes you are connecting to the same set of switches.  For example: the max number of FEXes that can be uplinked to a set of 6k switches is 24 if you are dual homed, but if you are single homed the max is 48 (24 per switch).
