Every example that I have scene calls for the GRP router to be the actual gateway but is it possible to have a router just publish routes but not actually handle any traffic?
Meaning I have ISP1-(AS 1111) 65.1.1.1 .and ISP2 -(AS 2222) 80.1.1.1 coming into my company into a PIX 65.1.1.2 & 80.1.1.2. I see that the pix can handle dynamic routing like RIP & OSPF but is there a way to run BGP on pix? I believe that I can only allow BGP traffic to pass through it, if that's correct...
Here's my plan
I will have a small router on my DMZ (65.1.1.3 and/or 80.1.1.3 NAT)to publish BGP routes only. I will forward BGP from the pix to small router.
Will this work?
Or can I just place the router outside my pix so I don't have to NAT it & have it publish only & still have my pix handle all other traffic other than BGP?
I'm just trying to see if I'm missing something. Any other suggestion?
