We plan on putting this on our internal network, but before I do that I need to ensure that the external connector is not possible, as it's not worth the risk of a junior tech messing around and bringing down the network. Is there a way to do this?
We ran into a software bug recently that caused the entire stack to fail - and we are looking at ways of removing the stack as a single point of failure. Currently we have the following setup: (Port channel from the ASR to SW1, ASR port-channel subin...
You can create an external connector that bridges the connection, thus giving the simulation access to the internal network:https://developer.cisco.com/docs/modeling-labs/#!bridge-modeNotice the giant warning in the link.
Thank you! We will still need the port channel as we will be using switch stacks, and if a member fails, one port of a port channel being down is much less of an impact than having to have STP reconverge. May ask if this technology has been replaced...
