Subject: Re: [Vyatta-users] Redundant Routers Setup (VRRP)
You'd need a switch between TWTC and your vyatta pair. Is your /28 routed
behind a /30 from TWTC or are they routing the 28 for you and you're NATing to
your inside hosts? If the /28 is physically behind your vyatta, and you have a
/30 out front, you'll need a /29 or larger to be able to do VRRP (one ip for
each router + the VIP).
I can't help you on the step-by-step, as I've never done VRRP on Vyatta. You
might want to read through chapter 11 of the configuration guide, as it deals
with VRRP.

I have a couple of questions that I am not grasping the concept on completely
First summarizing, If i am understanding, I can setup vyatta on two computers,
and use one as a primary router
and the other as the backup and come on line automatcally if the primary goes
down. using VRRP
If my summarization is correct here are the questions
1. Is there a step to step configuration to do this, and if so someone point me
to it?
Summary on Question 2
My Upstream provider (Time Warner) now feeds me 28 ips which I have configured
in vyatta and routing in and out just fine to the servers, and work stations on
the otherside of vyatta througha second ethernet card
2. Time Warner goes straight from their switch via cat 5 to ethernet interface
on the Pri-Vyatta How do I get
cat 5 to the second (Backup router) do I put ina small hub and branch off
between the two?
Thanks for any helpful pointers here
