I’ll soon be installing a redundant DS3 connection to the Internet with a different ISP. I’ve been working to get everything in order to make the failover as automatic as possible. Have an ASN and will be running BGP on the 2 external Cisco routers.I only have one FW at this time, so, it will need to route accross both Internet connections simultaneously and failing over to a single DS3 when necessary. The FW is Sun Ultra 10 running Solaris 2.6. I’ll be running OSPF internally on my Extreme switches.
How and what routing protocols will I need to run on the FW. I’m thinking I can run OSPF internally on the FW and redistribute the routes from the external Cisco’s to the FW and ultimately to the OSPF area.
Please confirm my thoughts on this config. I’m open to any suggestions you may have.
By the way, do you have any suggestions for a BGP and OSPF solution for Solaris?
Thanks,
Glen Stone
