I took this video and replicated this escenario with Mikrotik routers and worked like a charm. I'm running this on my small WISP. 😅 I reduced my routing tables quite a lot within my core.. And it enabled me to use Anycast DNS for content caching.. Thanks for the vídeo..
Hi John It's a pity that is not from scratch for learning how work vrf routing.... :( i'm a ccna level but it's impressing how all your video made growing my knowledge and inspirate me for studing....Thank's!!!
Hey, Luca! Thanks so much for watching and your kinds words! A BGP Free Core doesn't actually require any VRF configuration, so you don't need to worry about them here :) But VRFs, however, are very important when configuring MPLS Layer 3 VPNs using MP-BGP! If you're interested and want to see how to configure that, I have an older 3 part video on that here: th-cam.com/video/ofn0Sb6zlZU/w-d-xo.html Although, I feel I could probably do a better job describing the process now that I am a bit more practiced in making videos so I might remake another video on that very topic! I've also got some plans to make a video on VRF-Lite (VRFs without MPLS) very soon so hopefully that'll be of some help to you! Thanks again! -John
@@IPvZero that's what they're designated for. If you owned or administrated a public ASN you might not be keen on people using it in examples. It's like not using a 555 phone number in a movie.
@@xephael3485 In educational videos it's very common to use public AS numbers under to help illustrate a more realistic representation of BGPs implementation. It's fair use. This is true in popular networking blogs, and much bigger and better videos than mine - such CBT Nuggets who'll draw out diagrams and fictionally assign random public AS numbers to real ISPs like "Sprint" and "Verizon". Even flicking through my CCIE and CCNP textbooks I can see examples of Autonomous Systems like "AS 123", etc. The same is true of domain names and IP addresses. In fact, in the video I've listed the IP address "8.8.8.8" which is a public address owned by Google. I get the reason for the RFC, but I'd rather not use private/special use ASs when trying to explain concepts that would require real routing over the internet. Plus, I like to match up the AS and IP addresses to make it easier for people to visually follow the traffic paths when tracerouting haha. Thanks for watching! :) -John
Hey, man! I am using EVE-NG Community Edition! It's great. It's free to download but I'm using my Cisco VIRL account to provide the IOS images. And for the illustrations Windows Ink Workspace with a basic drawing tablet! Thanks for watching! :) - John

Brilliant stuff, Not A Federal!! Sounds like you did a great job :)
Thanks for leaving your feedback, too. I really appreciate it!

You should use 65536-65551 in your samples
Why do you say that?

Hey John What software are you using
Hey, man! I am using EVE-NG Community Edition! It's great. It's free to download but I'm using my Cisco VIRL account to provide the IOS images. And for the illustrations Windows Ink Workspace with a basic drawing tablet!
Thanks for watching! :)
