BGP two providers backup

Wed Jun 27, 2012 5:13 pm

Hi,

I want to announce my networks on two ISP.

I've seen the example in Wiki but i still have a question,

Have i to write some new route on RIPE database?

I've just made the bgp connection with both the isp and i'm still announcing my class on one of them.


Thanks

You should have a route object in the RIPE DB, with your ASN in it. What is your IP prefix and ASN?

You won't need multiple route objects for a single prefix unless you are not originating the prefix from your own ASN. You should probably setup an aut-num object showing your advertisements/policies (i.e. advertising your prefix to both suppliers, accepting full routes from both suppliers).
