· Configure Monitor Link to enable one DR member device to shut down its downlink interface upon uplink interface failure for traffic to fail over to the other DR member device.

Configure spanning tree to eliminate loops:

· Enable spanning tree on the DR member devices.

· Enable BPDU guard on the DR member devices to protect them from forged BPDU attacks.

Analysis

To enable successful traffic failover upon failure of one DR member device, configure Device A and Device B to set up BGP peer relationships by using VLAN-interface 100.

Restrictions and guidelines

In this example, all devices use factory defaults. When you configure DRNI on a live network, make sure the following requirements are met:

· Device A and Device B use the same DR system MAC address.

· Each device has a unique router ID.

Traffic forwarding models

Traffic characteristics

The forwarding model matrix provides the following characteristics of traffic:

· No.—Traffic number, which can be U-S2, U-S3, or U-N.

¡ U—Underlay traffic.

¡ S—Server.

¡ N—Network.

· Traffic type—Type of traffic, which can only be known IPv4 unicast.

· Direction—Direction of traffic, which can only be south to north.

· Forwarding path—Nodes that traffic traverses.

· Traffic simulation—Traffic simulation method. Typically a tester is used to simulate traffic.

· Load—Traffic size, which can be light (less than 1000 flows).

· Traffic direction to firewalls/LB—Not applicable.

Underlay forwarding models

No.	Traffic type	Direction	Forwarding path	Traffic simulation	Load	Traffic direction to firewalls/LB
U-S2	Known unicast	South to north	Server 1 > Device A/B > Device C > Server 2	Tester	Light	N/A
U-S3	Known unicast	South to north	Server 1 > Device A/B > Device C > Server 3	Tester	Light	N/A
U-N1	Known unicast	South to north	Server 1 > Device A/B > Device C > Network	Tester	Light	N/A
