RE: [FW1] Single Nokia IP to two outbound switches




I will be attempting something similar, only my Internal connection will be
dual homed to my network core.  My strategy will use OSPF Static Policy and
Costs for default routes for failover.  This can be done with almost any L3
Switch.

I have not seen a setup like this before.

I guess it could be done but I do not know how to make it work

The fail over stuff usually has two routers internal and 2 routers external
running HSRP

2 Nokias running VRRP.

I have never seen someone put dual switches in-between a router and a FW.

Subject: [FW1] Single Nokia IP to two outbound switches



How bout this:


       Internal
         |
       Nokia
     /      \
Switch   Switch
     \      /
      Router
        |
     The world

Suppose inbetween my firewall and internet router, there were two switches
configured in failover.

So if anything went wrong with one switch, it would failover to the other.

Logically, this would require two external interfaces on my Nokia, one
connected to one switch, the other to the other.

Having said that I can't think how to implement this, on the Nokia, or in
fw-1.

Has anyone any comments?  Ignore the router end of this for the moment.


Cheers,

Paul.
