Dual-Router Dual-Homed

If you are thinking about how to implement a Dual-Router Dual-Homed topology, you should consider these tips in order to guarantee traffic optimization and failover:

  1. Use provider-independent IP address space to allow for advertisement to both ISPs (make sure not to configure your network as a transit network between autonomous systems, apply route filtering).
  2. Request a public BGP AS number for eBGP connections to the ISPs.
  3. Receive full or partial Internet routing tables to optimize forwarding outbound.
  4. Use a FHRP or an IGP internally.
  5. Whenever possible, use SD-WAN.
