Hi guys,
I am a routing technician working for a ISP, Customer has there own /24 IP block [yy.xx.xx.xx/24] directly from ARIN. And wishes to subnet that into (2) /27 IP block for two different site location. That would be facing two differnt interface from a two different PE router. I am granting them a dedicated WAN IP fro each of heir sites. For their Site A LAN they wish to use [yy.xx.xx.0/27] and for their Site B LAN they will use [yy.xx.xx.32/27] . Can i set statically each of the /27 on my each of the specific PE router facing each of the 2 customer sites, or i will just have to set the whole [yy.xx.xx.xx/24] to both of the 2 PE router facing the 2 customer site. Thank you for your support.

Hello Jonathan,
>> Can i set statically each of the /27 on my each of the specific PE router facing each of the 2 customer sites
You need to make each PE node able to route to the specific co-located /27 IP subnet, you can use a static route for this or you can receive the specific route on a eBGP session from CE.
In any case at BGP level the aggregate route /24 has to be generated or received at the two PE nodes.
The /24 block is needed for correct propagation of the customer route in the public Internet
Hope to help

Hi Sir,
Thanks for your reply.
Another question is, if customer is unwilling to do eBGP on their end.
Can they just use yy.xx.xx.xx/27 statically routing from each of their sites, while on my PE node, i'll do the same statically.
WAN IP 1: n.n.n.0/30
WAN IP 2: n.n.n.4/30
e.g.
customer router site 1:
ip route yy.xx.xx.xx 255.255.255.224 n.n.n.1(next hop, GW of PE 1)
PE side 1:
ip route yy.xx.xx.xx 255.255.255.224 n.n.n.2(next hope, CE side 1)
customer router site 2
ip route yy.xx.xx.xx 255.255.255.224 n.n.n.5(next hope, GW of PE 2)
PE side 2:
ip route yy.xx.xx.xx 255.255.255.224 n.n.n.6(next hope, CE side 2)
