Re-routing specific traffic from CORE (HQ site) to Remote site - HELP please

[Gene Geng]

Task:

I've been tasked to re-route Email traffic going to the PC subnet in our Remote site (Hawaii).

Working GOOD:

I've got the Remote site (Hawaii) configured correctly using PBR for reverse traffic to the EMAIL server at HQ via VPN tunnel there.

Our CORE (HQ):

Dual NEXUS 7K's+VPC, peer-links, etc. 7K1 and 7K2 running  EIGRP 100

WAN routers (ASR's) are physically connected only to 7K1, VLAN 55 configured for all WAN routers.

Problem:

ASR1 router is our VPN mGRE IPsec Tunnels using EIGRP for sites using Internet connection

ASR2 router is our MPLS BGP  Provider.

In 7K1 & 7K2, I've tried putting  PBR/router maps on the SVI VLAN (VLAN 36)for the EMAIL server to route to Hawaii PCs via  ASR1 but it still wants to route VIA ASR2.

I'm not sure what to look at now.

Hello Gene,

without seeing the configuration of your route maps used for PBR on Nexus 7k1 and 7k2 is difficult to be of help.

Besides this, if both ASRs are only connected to Nexus 7k1 on vlan 55, only Nexus 7k1 is able to perform PBR. So Nexus 7k1 should be the primary default gateway for the vlan 36 that hosts the email server.

Hope to help
