Hi all, I have BGP questions. But first the set up.
ISP1 connectected to R1 ISP2 connected to R1 ISP2 connected to R2 IBGP between R1 and R2 redistributing 0.0.0.0 from EBGP into IGP that is received from primary ISP. Which from what I've found on google searches that seems to be the norm. Both routers are receiving the full BGP table. Several Networks advertised out both ISPs. Now the questions.. 1. Is it a good idea to receive the full BGP table other than the cool factor? Also, is there a way to prevent from becoming a transit hop while receiving the full BGP table? When you receive the full BGP table, isn't becoming a transit area automatic? 2. Is there a good way to load balance outbound traffic to the internet in this set up? 60/40? If the route goes out ISP1 and network A is advertised to ISP2 will asymetric routing work in this case? I think not. I would assume the best practice method would be to have the path go out which ever Network is advertised to which ISP. For example, if Network B is advertised out ISP2 then have them route that way instead of ISP1. thanks for any info. _______________________________________________ For more information regarding industry leading CCIE Lab training, please visit www.ipexpert.com Are you a CCNP or CCIE and looking for a job?
