Hello every body...
I have a Fortigate 200D as edge router/firewall. I have 3 Wan link. One DSL for users Internet and 2 Links with BGP for Access local servers from outside.Also the company has purchased one /24 ip range from RIPE with Public AS number and Company Web site is set to these IPs in public DNSs.
Now I have this problem. I made a Zone and joined two WAN links to it and configed both BGPs and every thing goes fine. But I have to Set my /24 public IPs on one WAN link as "secondary IP address" on each wan that has the main Default route (for example when default 0.0.0.0 is on WAN1, I need to set my public IPs as "secondary IP address" on WAN1 and when I need to change my Link to WAN2, I have to manually remove IPs from WAN1 and Add it to WAN2...)
Whats should I do for this problem? Is there any way not to change IPs each time ???
Thanks every one
I'm no expert on BGP, but here's what I've done in my lab using 5.2 and 5.4.
You can either use a loopback interface and put your /24 on this.
You'll need a policy for incoming traffic, iirc.
or
you can create a blackhole route with your public /24.
Both options work for me in my lab.
Got to announce my prefix to my neighbors and NAT/portforward/zones/pools/vpn works.
