[c-nsp] Dual Homing

[Darwis Herman]

Dear Daljit,

The ACL hits showing that customer's gateway successfully reached ISP's end (C4500). That is just a control mechanism that will make sure only allowed IP can travel thru back to ISP.

I don't have the control over Fortigate. The customer told me that that Fortigate configured with primary and secondary WAN link. It will sense the availability of links. If primary is down, it will divert to secondary.



Dear Bruce,

Yes, as of the ACL, ISP controls the inbound, Fortigate controls outbound from customer end.



What is required in this setup is, 172.21.200.32/27 can travel thru both links at any point of time. Not necessarily load balanced.





Best Regards,

 

Darwis Herman
