Solved: edge distribution / enterprise edge models

carl_townshend · ‎11-09-2011

Hi all

Can you tell me what the majority use for your edge distribution model and enterprise WAN model

We have a a campus core which should connect to the edge,

would you typically go from core, to a firewall, then to a mulitlayer switch or ASR router, then this would connect your internet / WAN models etc ?

Hi Carl,

That is what good and as per best practice.

So that your ASR routers facing your provider switches at perimeter.
And your ASA outside interface will connect to your ASR and inside interface to your core switch

Please rate the helpfull posts.

Hi Carl,

I would like and hoping as best practice like this...

1. ASR routing facing the internet/WAN
2. Your Firewall connect to your ASR router.
3. Firewall connect to your Core or multi layer switch.

hi there

My idea, would be

Core connects to ASA firewall

outside interface connects to vlan on 2 x ASR routers running HSRP

ASR router then connects to third party WAN switches, Internet firewall, VPN module etc

this sound good ?
