Thanks to all for the responses, certainly illuminating. I'm now more aware of what I can do and what tools are available. The following makes sense to me: - Take full routing tables and default from both ISPs and decide how I filter the routes that get installed in my routers. -

Dual Homed BGP for failover

2011-01-18 Thread Ahmed Yousuf
Hi, I'm looking at a setup where we use BGP to announce PI space to two upstream ISPs. ISP A provides a 30Mb/s connection and ISP B provides a 10Mb/s. Originally the plan was to use ISP B's link as a backup and local pref traffic outbound via ISP A and pref inbound using AS prepend via ISP A.
