Hi All,
i have a network scenario wherein i have two paths to another site (site 2) for redundancy purposes
SITE 1 SITE 2
X
Router A ---- Switch ---------------------------switch ----- Router C
| |
| |
Switch Switch
| |
| |
Router B ----- Switch ---------------------------------------------|
Y
Routes A, B and C are clustered J6350s. Router B has only static routes and the primary path to router C is through Router A. My objective is to switch to link Y when link X fails. Since i only have static routes, it will not be withdrawn when link X fails because the interface is still active.
note: router A failover to router B going to Router C, however, Router B routes the packet back to router A creating a loop since the static route is not withdrawn and the qualified next hop does not become active.
If BFD can help in this scenario, can anyone provide correct BFD configuration? what other options are available?
this is currently what i have and it doesn't work:
route 0.0.0.0/0 {
next-hop 20.20.20.20; <--router A
qualified-next-hop 10.10.10.10; <---router C
bfd-liveness-detection {
minimum-interval 500;
multiplier 3;
neighbor 20.20.20.20;
local-address 20.20.20.30;
minimum-receive-ttl 255;
}
}
Thank you,
Cyke
