I am currently attempting to route between a VRF I have created and the global routing table. VRF "External" basically contains all the BGP peering between sites and the ISP while the default or global routing table contains the internal/private subn...

I am running into a situation where I have duplicate subnets (10.1.1.0/24) with an internal network and an external vendor. The external vendor is coming across our PIX Firewall. Would it make sense to create a NAT statement on the outside interface ...

Hello, I recently attempted placing an ASA in my environment in transparent mode to replace a Juniper transparent firewall and ran into some issues. The way my network is designed is I have a router with the default gateway for all the networks behin...

Hello,Yesterday I ran into an issue in someones environment where they wanted to trunk a 2960 switch (Lets call it SwitchA) off of another 2960 (SwitchB) switch which was a vPC peer to a set of Nexus 5k's. When he did this, he noticed his phones were...

Hello, I am interested in some guidance on the best way to peer OSPF over a vPC. I understand by default the peer-link provides loop avoidance which is why dynamic routing protocols cant peer across the peer-link. I did read another article stating t...

This happens to be a PIX. Dont know if that changes anything. Since my network doesnt need to access the external vendor would it make the most sense for the vendor to NAT their network before coming across the tunnel and then I modify all my objec...

Aditya, Thank you for your reply. Yes, they are coming across a VPN tunnel. So these changes need to be made on both ends? Only reason I ask is Im unsure if the external side will be willing or able to do this.

Philip, Thank you for your reply. My apologies, so what we had the testing team do is try and test the ACL logic based on what they previously were able to do with the Juniper firewall in place. I have 4 named interfaces; Outside, InsideA, InsideB, a...

Yes both sides of the Nexus had the peer-gateway command for the domain.Maybe I am not explaining this properly. The nexus and every other IDF switch was working fine. There was just one IDF switch they wanted to piggy back off another IDF to the Nex...

Hey Madhu, Thanks for your reply. Yes, I was allowing the same VLAN over the peer-link also. If I wasnt then all the other IDF switches would of had downed phones. The odd thing also is when SwitchA was trunked to SwitchB desktops had connectivity b...
