Hi,I have attached a diagram that I hope explains the topology sufficiently. All the switches are 3560s and the router is a cyberoam.The Switches are all connected using routed ports on layer 3. The router at the end has a static route for the entire...
I'm sure this is very basic question, but I've seen the attached network design quoted in lots of places (cacti weather maps etc) but I'm not sure how people do it.Basically it's 4 switches with each switch connected to the other.Is the purpose of t...
I have two Cisco 3560x switches running IPBase on different sites joined by a 1gbps connection with routed ports. I have video data totalling 80mbps in site A that is crucial to arrive at Site B regardless of any other traffic on the network.What I w...
Hi,I'm implementing a multi site network and intend to use OSPF to do it. The links between each site at either 100mbps fibre or 1gbps My question is, is this better to be done with switches (3560x with IP Base) or routers (2921)? What are the main p...
I award ratings when I've tested it to make sure I don't send people on red-herrings.I've tested this and it does indeed work, great stuff thank you so much.RegardsAndrew.
Ah I see what you mean now, that makes sense.If I were to set the "last" switch (172.20.1.1) as the OSPF default-information originate always as you stated and then this switch has a static route of 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 172.20.1.10 in it, would this then ...
Hi Soroush,I see what you mean now, however I don't think this will quite give me what I want.First of all, the router is not that clever, it doesn't support OSPF (hence the static routes on it).Also, I want to be able to use differen default routes ...
Sorry, when I say "first" I meant the switch that the server is plugged into, when I said "last" I meant the last in the chain, i.e. the one the router is connected to.8.8.8.8 is the google public DNS server which I am using to test internet access.I...
