I'm looking for some basics for configuring BGP. I do have a couple docs on BGP, but apparently I'm missing something.
Here's my scenario:
Two sites: site1 and site2
Switches: Catalyst 3560s
Router:
2811 == 10.20.102.10
VLANs:
VLAN10 == 10.20.102.1 (primary data vlan)
VLAN4== 10.20.100.1 (san replication)
I am trying to create a new vlan and set it up to update via BGP. The traffic will replicate to site2, but I'll hold off on those details for the moment. As I understand, I would create the vlan as such:
switch(config)#vlan 4
switch(config-vlan)#exit
switch(config)#
Next, I would:
switch(config)#interface vlan4
switch(config-if)#ip address 10.20.100.1 255.255.255.0
etc...
I have setup an interface on the router:
int F0/0.100 == 10.20.100.10
For BGP, I've configured:
router bgp <as>
neighbor 10.20.100.10 remote-as 65342
address-family ipv4
neighbor 10.20.104.10 activate
network 10.20.100.0 mask 255.255.255.0
I've not added any static routing. Looking at examples in our own config, it doesn't appear to require it. The switch is a layer 3, yet, i can't ping the 10.20.100.10 address from the switch and I'm not sure why.
The question is how do I create a new vlan and set this network up so that it updates in bgp?
I'll bring in the site 2 info (which will have another vlan setup) when I can get this running/updating properly.
Been on here quite a bit lately;) Thanks for the help!
