Solved: MPLS connection move from Switch to router

mrochac · ‎01-13-2018

Here is the scenario - we have MPLS connected from ISP onto a switch, and this is due to not having the wic card in place day of delivery - no WIC is in place in the router (2901) and working - MPLS has been working perfect, i can ping the PE device ip address from my router so on and so forth - here is the problem, i need to move that MPLS connection to my router - and i thought i had this figured out but i guess not - not as easy as just moving cat cable from switch to router and keeping config the same -

thoughts?

Hi

Just a couple of questions, This configuration (blue) looks an iBGP to your internal network is that correct? and is it just for internal not to connect to the ISP?

interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1
description DATA VLAN
encapsulation dot1Q 1 native
ip address 10.179.129.253 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside

But you are now trying connecting to a Etherswitch module the ISP's router, is that correct?

Physical WIC port

!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0
no ip address
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1/1
no ip address
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1/2
no ip address
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1/3
no ip address
duplex full
speed auto

So I would like to see the current configuration for the connection with the ISP. With Etherswich module you could configure:

Example:

vlan 100

name ISP

ip routing

interface vlan 100

ip address x.x.x.x y.y.y.y (P2P with provider)

no shutdown

interface g0/1/3

switchport access vlan 100

switchport mode access

no shutdown

ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 x.x.x.x (pointing to ISP router interface IP)

Could you please share a Low level topology?

Thank you in advance

Hello

Then providing the wic is working you should obtain connectivity - Which makes me wonder if its the wic

Can you confirm its installed correctly ( in the correct slot)

Have you rebooted the rtr?
Can you ping the interface on the wic when its connected to your laptop?

Hi

It is a little bit confuse, could you please a diagram (details are not requested, it could be a simple scheme). Your router is the CE? If you want to change your current CE (Switch) by a router you need to verify the configuration to mirror it to the router.

....that's where i'm confused, so the router has been the CE device all along, but, there was a switch in the middle - so picture..... (router CE)-----[switch]----(router PE) - now we want to remove switch and go (router CE)--------(router PE) - in my eye the config hasnt changed, all we did was add the WIC card on the router so that the PE device could connect to it. Make sense?

....wanted to add this from debug.

Hi

Thank you for the clarification, if the switch is configured as layer 2 and it is just for transit you should not have any problem, as you mentioned just disconnect the cable from the PE to the new CE, the key is verify how is configure the switch if it has an IP address or what is different.

Is possible to see the configuration on the switch? was it running BGP?

mrochac · ‎01-13-2018

HI Julio - switch has absolutely no config at all, simple L2 device - so yes a transition device... here is the port config from switch.... this is the port MPLS was coming in on.

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/14
srr-queue bandwidth share 10 10 60 20
queue-set 2
priority-queue out
mls qos trust cos

..

Julio E. Moisa · ‎01-13-2018

You should not have any problem at all, unless there is a configuration on the PE with negotiation like duplex or speed. I suggest talk with the ISP and verify its configuration and request a maintenance window along with them.

>> Marcar como útil o contestado, si la respuesta resolvió la duda, esto ayuda a futuras consultas de otros miembros de la comunidad. <<

mrochac · ‎01-13-2018

right....that's where i'm stuck - so if i put it back on the switch everything go back to normal. i believe the router is set to auto/auto for both speed and duplex - did you happen to take a look at the debug messages i posted? i will open a ticket with ISP and go from there.... thanks.

Julio E. Moisa · ‎01-13-2018

You could try cleaning the ARP entries or remove the BGP configuration and paste it again but I strongly suggest do that along with the provider during an authorized maintenance to avoid any problem.

Remember get a backup of your configuration.

Why are you adding a WIC card when when the rtr didn’t have one prior to this especially when the switch inbetween as you say was just acting as L2 transit connection?

The bgp debug is stating no tcp connection hence no established peering is successful

From your PE rtr perspective nothing would have change so all your u need to do is get the physical interface on your CE rtr talking to the PE

One possible reason could be the switch was mdix compatibie and now as your directly connected to the PE rtr your may require a crossover cable

Julio E. Moisa · ‎01-14-2018

Hi Paul,

Good point, the reason could be the cable, a crossover is required to interconnect routers and probably it was missed during the first implementation and that is the reason of the switch.

Hi Paul - the switch was a short term band-aid so i can bring up MPLS connection and setup BGP - i'm not a fan of having the switch in the middle, its an access switch adn the MPLS should be connecting to rtr anyways - the WIC was installed because i didnt have a port available. I will see if i can find a xover cable and attempt what you suggested.... thanks

Glad to hear that - but your comment above i dont understand - if you didnt have port available how is the rtr connecting without the wic into the switch?

... so the router right now has 3 ports being used for WAN (GE/0), LAN (GE/1), CGI (WIC/0) (secure connection) - now i'm adding an addition WAN connection to MPLS which is going into WIC - so the router has 2 GE ports an additional WIC for the CGI connection - and now i'm adding a 2nd WIC with 4GE ports... hope this clears things up...

gents - so i changed the cable between the routers to a xover - having issues again... here is some info that i hope it can help you guys help me...

Hello

First did you test with a cross-over cable?

Also apologies but I still dont get it -

@mrochac wrote:

... so the router right now has 3 ports being used for WAN (GE/0), LAN (GE/1), CGI (WIC/0) (secure connection) - now i'm adding an addition WAN connection to MPLS which is going into WIC - so the router has 2 GE ports an additional WIC for the CGI connection - and now i'm adding a 2nd WIC with 4GE ports... hope this clears things up...

So basically we are on about interface Ge/0 thats all correct? Which when working attaches to a switch which also has the PE rtr attached, but when you remove the switch and attach this rtr via it Ge/0 port direct to the PE rtr connectivity fails correct? - but so whats the additional WIC for, would this be for an additional peering or addition to a multipoint.

Can you also post the config of your router please.

Did you test
