Hi,
I'm testing before I buy it cisco 3750G.(i'm thinking about 4948 to )
I want use this switch as L3 router for my network.
I want to keep intervlan routing on the switch (about 50 vlans with L3 routing) and for some vlans i need different gateways.
I tried to run policy routing on incoming vlan
interface Vlan10 ip address 10.10.10.1 255.255.255.128 ip policy route-map test
interface Vlan11 ip address 10.10.10.129 255.255.255.128
interface Vlan100 ip address 200.200.200.1 255.255.255.252
access-list 1300 permit 10.10.10.0 0.0.0.127 route-map test permit 1300 match ip address 1300 set ip next-hop 200.200.200.2
in this scenerio all packets from vlan 10 are policy routed to
200.200.200.2. even traffic to vlan11.I want policy routing for packets that aren't in local routing table.
I found on newsgroups " If you use "set ip next-hop" or "set interface," the precedence is: 1) route-map, 2) routing table. So if the interface specified in the route-map is up, or if the next-hop specified in the route-map appears in the routing table, then the packets will be routed according to the route-map set statement. If, on the other hand the next-hop is not in the routing table/interface is down, then the policy will be ignored and the packet will be routed according to the routing table (standard IOS routing). If you instead use "set ip default next-hop" or "set default interface," the behavior is exact opposite. In this case, the precedence is: 1) routing table, 2) route-map. So if the destination matches anything in the routing table (including a default route), the route-map will never be used. If there is no match in the routing table for the dest IP, then the route-map will be used to forward the packet (assuming the specified next-hop appears in the routing table/specified interface is up). "
but set ip default next-hop isn't CEF or Fastswitching operation for
3750G or 4948for C 4500 ( I Think it will applay to 4948 - which is based on C4500) I found this:
The Catalyst 4500 switching engine supports matching a "set next-hop" route-map action with a packet on a permit ACL. All other route-map actions, as well as matches of deny ACLs, are supported by a flow switching model. In this model, the first packet on a flow that matches a route-map will be delivered to the software for forwarding. Software determines the correct destination for the packet and installs an entry into the TCAM so that future packets on that flow are switched in hardware. The Catalyst 4500 switching engine supports a maximum of 4096 flows
for C 3750 I found this:
IP PBR can now be fast-switched. Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.0, PBR could only be process-switched, which meant that on most platforms the switching rate was approximately 1000 to 10,000 packets per second. This speed was not fast enough for many applications. Users who need PBR to occur at faster speeds can now implement PBR without slowing down the router.
Fast-switched PBR supports all of the match commands and most of the set commands, with the following restrictions:
- The set ip default next-hop and set default interface commands are not supported. * The set interface command is supported only over point-to-point links, unless a route-cache entry exists using the same interface specified in the set interface command in the route map. Also, at the process level, the routing table is consulted to determine if the interface is on a reasonable path to the destination. During fast switching, the software does not make this check. Instead, if the packet matches, the software blindly forwards the packet to the specified interface.
-------------
There is posibility to use intervlan routing and pbr for vlans to route outside local routing table via separate gateways (no default gateway) and do it in hardware ?
Switch C3750G or C4948.
Thanks a lot for any good informations
