I need help in configuring the network (BGP & 2 ISP)

florinmarian

Level 1

Greetings, friends!
After noticing that in this community there really are people willing to help and teach you, I come again with some problems to which I hope I will find an answer (either directly or indirectly).

Let me describe my resources:
- The Cisco WS-4948E switch
- ASN AS57XXX
- Subnets 188.241.XXX.0/24, 188.241.YYY.0/24 and 2a0e:8f02:XXXX::/48 respectively
- ISP A, which does not support BGP session, having the IP address 192.168.1.XXX configured on the switch, unable to give up the router provided by the ISP
- ISP B which supports BGP session, having the IP address 10.192.63.XXX configured on the switch, without having any public IP address or any intermediate device between the switch and the ISP

What I want:
1. How should the network be divided into vlans knowing that I connect the ports GigabitEthernet1/1 and GigabitEthernet1/2 to the router of the first ISP, GigabitEthernet1/3 to the 2nd ISP and I want to allow the other ports of the switch to be considered consumers that can only have IP addresses from the 3 subnets listed above (so the Switch should serve as a gateway with the IPs 188.241.XXX.1, 188.241.YYY.1, 2a0e :8f02:XXXX::1)?
2. In what way can the 2 ISPs be used knowing that one allows BGP session, the other does not but the one that does not allow BGP session still does not filter the IPs?

Configuration examples would be welcome because it's the first time I'm interacting with a Cisco switch.

Thank you!

I write some note and two command you can use to check the connectivity 
telnet and debug

Hello!

In the end I managed to establish the BGP connection via IPv6 with RCS RDS and announce the /48 route through it, but the problem I am facing now is that from the client using the IP address 2a0e:8f02:XXXX::2 with the gateway -ul 2a0e:8f02:XXXX::1 I get timeout when I try to send pings to the internet.
That client is connected to GigabitEthernet1/48.
Thank you!

Good to know that' so you now receive both ipv6 and ipv4 from isp'

The access to internet need you receive defualt route from ISP.

Those are the routes I received and it's strange because I requested /48 and I see just /64 but anyway, even with /64 my IP is not accessible from other networks.

*May 26 23:38:02.635: BGP IPv6: Walker update route FF00::/8

are there any FW in-between ?

No, just default ACLs which cannot be deleted. The switch is directly connected to ISP's ONT.

This is actually full configuration of the switch:

you must connect ISP, it not BGP issue the IP (IPv4 or IPv6) is not reachable. 

It seems to be also a vlan issue because I found this:

Switch#show ipv6 route

VLAN200 is success 
VLAN300 is failed ? 
show ip inter brief <<- check if SVI of VLAN is UP 
show vlan <<- check if VLAN is add to VLAN DB 

NOTE:- if you dont advertise the IP of VLAN's to ISP then you Need NAT overload to interface connect your SW to ISP
