Traffic Redirection

[dave_ryan]

Hi...  first better appoligise for that pic above

what im trying to do is get traffice from host-A to host-B via the distance simulator.

So the nexus 5548, is the default gateway for the hosts, that reside in the same vlan, they can ping each other fine.

but i need to simulate some distance between them....The distance simulator is connected to the 5k with a standard 1g fibre.

the host just dont take the distance sim into consideration when communicating.(not really surprised about that )

so i need to redirect traffic to the incomming port of the distance-sim, i've thought about using some acl, ?

jwill it accept source port(host-a) via port(5k) destination (host-b)?

any ideas, comments

thx

The quickest way would to have host b on another vlan - that would route thru the distance simulator, with no L3 SVI on the 5K.

thanks..

that's poisible, just need to remove the svi and add a static route for all traffic from vlanA - vlanB..

cheers
