Issues with traffic generator and VLANs

Hello, I am trying to send traffic from "1 interface no vlan" to "1 interface multiple vlans" using a RB1100AHx2 6.36.3 and it only works for one VLAN. TG router has the following config: /interface vlan add interface=ether6 name=ether6.10 vlan-id=10 add interface=ether6 name=eth...

Re: Load Sharing BGP

You can also prepend the /24 prefixes you want less per ISP.

Re: Routing Public IP address in this Environment

You can route /32 from that /26 directly over your network or over IP tunnels, with or without OSPF.

Re: Feature request : Multipath TCP (MPTCP) support

Two big use cases for MPTCP are link aggregation (load balancing) and link redundancy (fail over). While it is true it is end to end, it does not mean that it cannot be useful starting from the router. How ? On the "aggregation" router, establish a TCP tunnel with a "provider" ro...

Redistribute IPSEC tunnels into OSPF

Hello,
is there a way to redistribute IPsec tunnels "routes" to other routers using OSPF ?
It is possible using IPIP or GRE over IPsec, but what about plain IPsec tunnel ?
Thanks.

Then use these routing marks with routes received from your upstreams. Lab it first though :-) By the way, if you advert...

Re: Bonding 2 WAN Connections

You can bond EOIP tunnels taking different paths between two routers. The bond algorithm will take care of load balancing and fault tolerance.

Re: How to connect 2 switches

Unfortunately STP is one of the many features missing from the CRS.
It's a shame for a manageable switch but it's somewhat understandable at that price point.

Re: How to connect 2 switches

If you switch packets from between ether1 and trunk1=ether2+ether3, then you can set master-port=ether1 on ether2 and ether3.
If you wish to route packets on a trunk, then I don't know. I don't plan to use a CRS as a router.

Re: How to connect 2 switches

The switch chip in CRS supports port trunking. It provides failover and will balance outgoing packets equally on each port of the trunk. Thus, if your switch switches 1000 packets from ether1 to trunk ether2+ether3, it will send 500 packets on ether2 and 500 packets on ether3. LACP is not supported ...

Re: Should I receive routes from other BGP sessions I have?

I see two possible reasons for this:
1) your providers do not forward routes to you with your own AS number in the AS path
2) you have set the parameter allow-as-in=no for your BGP peers
