How do I configure hub-and-spoke VPN?
Hub and Spoke VPN Setup and Configuration
- Set up the hub MX Device. Navigate to the Dashboard Network of the MX that will act as the hub. Navigate to Security & SD-WAN > Configure > Site-to-Site VPN.
- Set up the spoke MX Device. Navigate to the Dashboard Network of the MX that will act as the spoke.
What is hub-and-spoke configuration?
In a hub-and-spoke configuration, VPN connections radiate from a central FortiGate unit (the hub) to a number of remote peers (the spokes). Traffic can pass between private networks behind the hub and private networks behind the remote peers. Traffic can also pass between remote peer private networks through the hub.
What is hub-and-spoke VPN?
In a centralized VPN configuration, also referred to as hub and spoke, all VPN tunnels converge at one location. This can be used to achieve global data visibility and control at a central location.
How does MPLS enable VPNS?
The six basic steps in the configuration are as follows:
- Configure the loopback interface to be used as the LDP router ID.
- Enable CEF.
- Configure the label distribution protocol.
- Configure the TDP/LDP router ID (optional).
- Configure MPLS on core interfaces.
- Configure IS-IS or OSPF as the MPLS VPN backbone IGP.
What does hub and spoke mean in MPLS?
IN HUB and Spoke – Only spokes location can communicate with their respective HUB location. Configure Separate VRF for every customer in PE. CE Router should have 1 Layer3 port + 1 Layer2 port. CE-PE any Routing protocol supported by MPLS Technology. AT HUB – HUB RT values would be export and Spoke RT will be import.
How does the hub and spoke VPN topology work?
The Paris-PE-Hub PE-router then advertises the routes back into the MPLS/VPN backbone with a route target value of Spoke. Each of the spoke PE-routers (Lon-PE-Spoke and Ham-PE-Spoke) is configured to import any routes with a route target value of Spoke into the EuroBank VRF.
What does hub and spoke mean in PE?
Configure Separate VRF for every customer in PE. CE Router should have 1 Layer3 port + 1 Layer2 port. CE-PE any Routing protocol supported by MPLS Technology. AT HUB – HUB RT values would be export and Spoke RT will be import. AT Spoke – HUB RT values would be import and Spoke RT will be Export.
Which is routing protocol supported by MPLS technology?
CE-PE any Routing protocol supported by MPLS Technology. AT HUB – HUB RT values would be export and Spoke RT will be import. AT Spoke – HUB RT values would be import and Spoke RT will be Export. AKshay has a rich experience of 10+ years in data and telecom domains.
