Howard's comment brings to mind a problem my Design Engineer raised when
responding to a customer RFI.
Howard's comment: . (Pause for usual mystification on why someone wants
routing protocols to pass through
a firewall, a fairly frequent question).
The customer RFI stated requirement ( wording as best as I can remember ):
Solution will entail two internet connections, a T1 and a DSL. Routing will
be configured such that priority traffic will use the T1 connection, and
ordinary internet browsing will use the DSL connction.
Lindy and I were having a real good laugh about the vagueness of the
requirement, when we decided to try to come up with a solution. We came up
with a number of questions for the customer to elaborate upon, and a
possible solution. Would anyone else care to use this as a test of design
issues?
If memory serves, the customer defined "priority" traffic as e-mail and
connectivity to a certain external web site.
So:
1) what are some of the questions the customer still needs to answer?
2) What are some possible solutions to this requirement?
( assume the T1 and the DSL terminate on the same router )
