CCIP Practice Lab #2
Feb 2nd
This is the second practice lab for my CCIP BGP and MPLS preparation. I’ve added my configs to the first post, let me know if I’ve missed anything. This lab has a lot of overlap with the last one, but I’ve added some more BGP-specific stuff in preparation for my upcoming exam. I have italicized all the changes. Here’s the topology:
Requirements
Core
- P1, P2, P3 and P4 run only MPLS and OSPF, no BGP.
- PE1, PE2, PE3 and PE4 will support EIGRP, OSPF and L2 VPNs to customers C1, C2 and C3.
BGP
- PE1 and PE4 will have an iBGP relationship and will be route reflectors for PE2 and PE3. Use the fewest commands possible.
- Configure MD5 authentication between CE4 and PE1 using the password “cisco1”.
- Configure MD5 authentication between CE4 and Peer1 using the password “cisco1”.
CCIP Practice Lab #1
Jan 28th
This is the first practice lab for my CCIP BGP and MPLS preparation. I have modified the existing topology to add another customer. This lab is somewhat basic, but it incorporates many different technologies.
Requirements
Core
- P1, P2, P3 and P4 run only MPLS and OSPF, no BGP.
- PE1, PE2, PE3 and PE4 will support EIGRP, OSPF and L2 VPNs to customers C1, C2 and C3.
BGP
- All PE routers will have iBGP relationships with each other. Use the fewest commands possible to accomplish this. Ensure multiple paths can be taken to peer with each router.
- PE1 and PE2 will have eBGP relationships with Peer1 and Peer2.
- Peer1 and Peer2 will inject networks from several loopbacks into BGP to simulate the internet.
- Peer1 and Peer2 will have an eBGP relationship.
Basic AToM Lab
Oct 14th
In this article we’ll go over a simple AToM (Any Transport over MPLS) configuration. I’ve been studying MPLS a lot lately and this is my first time playing with AToM and it’s very cool stuff. This article could be useful for anyone studying MPLS and/or CCIP/CCIE topics, or just someone who is interested in learning new things. I will be including my Dynagen/GNS3 .net file with this. Here is our topology:
Let’s go through the config:
P Router:
hostname P ! mpls label protocol ldp mpls ldp router-id lo0 force ! interface Loopback0 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 ! interface FastEthernet1/0 ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252 duplex auto speed auto mpls ip ! interface FastEthernet1/1 ip address 10.1.2.1 255.255.255.252 duplex auto speed auto mpls ip ! router ospf 100 router-id 1.1.1.1 log-adjacency-changes network 1.1.1.1 0.0.0.0 area 0 network 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.3 area 0 network 10.1.2.0 0.0.0.3 area 0 |
Here we’ve set the hostname, configured the MPLS label protocol (note: LDP is the default on new IOSes), we set a loopback interface that will be our RID for MPLS and OSPF. We also configured our connections to the PE routers and brought up OSPF as our IGP.
PE1 Router:
hostname PE1 ! mpls label protocol ldp mpls ldp router-id lo0 force ! pseudowire-class one encapsulation mpls ! interface Loopback0 ip address 2.2.2.2 255.255.255.255 ! interface FastEthernet1/0 ip address 10.1.1.2 255.255.255.252 duplex auto speed auto mpls ip ! interface Serial2/0 no ip address xconnect 3.3.3.3 100 pw-class one ! router ospf 100 router-id 2.2.2.2 log-adjacency-changes network 2.2.2.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 network 10.1.1.0 0.0.0.3 area 0 |
PE2 Router:
hostname PE2 ! mpls label protocol ldp mpls ldp router-id lo0 force ! pseudowire-class one encapsulation mpls ! interface Loopback0 ip address 3.3.3.3 255.255.255.255 ! interface FastEthernet1/0 ip address 10.1.2.2 255.255.255.252 duplex auto speed auto mpls ip ! interface Serial2/0 no ip address xconnect 2.2.2.2 100 pw-class one ! router ospf 100 router-id 3.3.3.3 log-adjacency-changes network 2.2.2.2 0.0.0.0 area 0 network 10.1.2.0 0.0.0.3 area 0 |
