BVI connectivity with Core Switches (VSS)

[aslam.bajwa]

Hi All ,

i have to connect one router to the core switch for redundancy . below are the details

1 - ON ROUTER -----configuring BVI on router to bridge to ethernet ports  + BVI interface ip 10.10.10.5/24

2- ON CORE SWITCHES - vss is configured on cisco 6500 - router one port is connected with core 1 and 2nd port is connected with core switch 2

3 - Both core switch ports are in the same vlan (Vlan 10 )

4 - Vlan 10 interface IP Add is 10.10.10.6/24

above scenario will work to give redundant connectivity to the router ??

Note : the router i have mentioned above is internet router

Aslam,

Yes considering if your configuration is correct.

Assuming that the setup is like this;

               Internet router

                         |

                         |

          ------------------------------

          |                              |

          Switch1              Switch2   { Switches forming the VSS)

It should work perfectly.

HTH
