Author Topic: BGP Confusion with Juniper and 3rd Party Software  (Read 221 times)

Greetings,

I am running a series of software VPN servers.  I have a group of road warriors that connect from various operating systems.  Basically, the components are:

  * Linux server running:
    * l2tpns (layer 2 tunneling protocol implementation)
    * pluto (ipsec)

l2tpns claims to support clustering, by means of a multicast address which other servers (peers) listen on to support load-balancing, failover, etc etc.

However, the documentation pertaining to what I need to do my border router/firewall is extremely vague.  It LITERALLY says:

"For a cluster, configure the members as BGP neighbours on your router and configure multi-path load-balancing. Cisco uses maximum-paths ibgp  for IBGP. If this is not supported by your IOS revision, you can use maximum-paths (which works for EBGP) and set as_number to a private value such as 64512"

My end desired result would be this:

   * Multiple l2tpns servers sharing a common multicast addr (239.192.13.13 is the config default).
   * These servers each are set up on our Juniper NetScreen-ISG 2000 (or SSG 140 for my demo/testing purposes) as BGP NEIGHBORS (I think).
   * Single public IPv4 address refers to this BGP "instance".

Am I making sense?

I guess what I am looking for here is one or more of the following:
 
  * A good document referral for my purposes, telling me how to accomplish the above on the Juniper-side of my network.
  * A skilled juniper ninja on this forum to give my pointers on any errors in my BGP-thinking.

Thank you,

This is a loser forum. My questions are never answered.
