Re: HSRP and Policy Route


I don't see how HSRP is even working for the 5.1 subnet without
trunking between the two MSFCs? You can see in your config that both
routers think they are the local owner of the 5.1 subnet, therefore
HSRP is not working for that access vlan because they are not
connected to each other in that VLAN to exchange HSRP packets. This
is your issue.- Hide quoted text -

They are not running as VLAN's so there is nothing to trunk. HSRP is
working flawlessly, it is the policy route that is messing me up. The
ports are running as physical L3 ports ("no switchport" command which
is default in the 6509 on the SUP720). The box is running more like a
48 port router than a switch. There is also no STP enabled since
there is no need for it.

I should also mention that the reason I need the policy route is that
these boxes also peer with BGP to my 2 ISP's (one on each box). Right
now I am taking only default route from the ISP's but I guess if I
can't get this policy route to work I can take full routes from the
ISPs and setup a default route to the Checkpoint cluster. I was
trying to avoid doing that if possible though.

Thanks,
Joe
