Regarding the Virtual Tunnel Interface feautre, in this document:http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_3t/12_3t14/feature/guide/gtIPSctm.htmlIt states that a VAM2+ hardware encryption module is required, which is only supported in the 7200. I curre...

I have a requirement to configure multiple spanned layer 2 networks between data centres for clustering services and I will be using MPLS xconnects.One of the spanned networks requires layer 3 connectivity and therefore the subnet needs to be configu...

I am in a ferocious debate with someone who insists on using BGP across their entire network - and is a global standard. This includes eBGP sessions between the core and aggregation layer in the DC, the core and user distribution layer, and between ...

With regards to IP precedence on a 3560 is it fair to say that 'mls qos trust dscp' and 'mls qos trust precedence' both achieve the same thing? Trust DSCP trusts the Class Selector whereas trust precedence trusts the IP precedence which is the same ...

Try changing the EIGRP variance under the EIGRP router process.You could manipulate the metrics, and therefore the load distribution by changing the delay under the interfaces.

If you stack the switches, which is best option you can either:- Have two layer 3 connections and load balance using EIGRP / CEF- As you said create an LACP EtherchannelWith both of these options you can plug the circuits into different switches, and...

If you cannot stack the switches, maybe they are to far apart, here are some other options:- Use GLBP rather than HSRP to load balance outbound traffic.- Advertise a more specific route from one of the switches for half of the subnet. For example if...

Why don't you stack the 3750 switches and remove HSRP? You can then rely on ECMP to load balance, i.e. the switch has two equal costs routes in its routing table and load balances accordingly.

I thought I’d give an update on this:- I tried the VRF option based on the 'Internet Access from an MPLS VPN Using a Global Routing Table' feature. The problem was the next hop with the GLOBAL route command could not be local to the router, i.e. a l...
