HI All,

I have a little weird request at work. One of our offices would like to split the VOIP traffic. At that office we have a 10MB primary and 3MB backup circuit. Currently the phones are routing over the 10MB circuit. The General Manager would like to use the 3MB backup circuit for VOIP traffic. For the 3MB we have two T1 lines bundled together in a multilink. Configuration is bellow if needed

3MB Circuit



This is for the VOIP



So when a user currently picks up the phone and calls home they are going out of the primary 10MB circuit. How can I split this to go out of the 3MB backup circuit?

I have never done any traffic splitting so far.

So basically in other words any traffic coming from VLAN 2 go out of the Multilink circuit.

Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks

policy based routing, if the data and voice are on different subnets, then, you
can base policy on that.

how to do it, i'm not going to say,... since i won't be getting your paycheck.

Yes, they are on two different subnets... Thanks for the hint I will look into policy based routing

Haha. Good cop... bad cop.

I just had to create an account to post here... This is a very difficult Forum to get any help when you have people like ristau5741 making comments such as “how to do it, i'm not going to say,... since i won't be getting your paycheck”. Then you get bman making stupid posts just to boost his Post rating to 185.
Maybe some of you here don’t realize that this person who has asked this question may be new to this type of stuff, may need a litle boost from experianced peaople, Im sure if he offerd some $$$ ristau5741 would be all over this post!!! It’s not like any of you NEVER asked for any help!!!!

@ Krock
Your config may look like something like this



You may have to change it and play with it a litle bit, if you have a test enviroment I wiuld suggest you test it in there before you apply anything in production.

Calm down, man.

The OP asked for help and got it. And considering he didn't ask more questions the assumption is that not only have we pointed him in the right direction, but he's actually read the documentation that was posted and has actually learnt something. You gave a working config which is fine, but how many people are just going to copy and paste verbatim without learning a single thing?

So I assume you are going to hang around than and continue to support everyone with working configurations? My post was not related to the OP and I apologize for that but it was relevant to the thread. As for the OP he may consider changing his wording and request. While the folks on this great forum are here to support they often shy away from giving direct examples to individuals. The main concern is this is business related. If you are filling a position in an organization you ought to be resourceful enough to find the answers. If you are stumped (as Google can't read your mind because you may lack the terminology) than coming to such a forum shows you are willing to learn. To assume anyone here would take the time to give direct support is absurd. He was giving a link by mellowd to discuss the very things you explicitly told him.

Man that was a long post. I could have had like 20 posts in that amount of time as my post count surely reflects the time I have been registered to this forum.

@mellowd

After an arrogant post from ristau5741 how can you ask any more questions? This guy denied you right of the bet... yes he has been here all his life and gets your support and I respect that, you really didn’t help him, you just threw a 900+ page document his way and said read this.. good luck. I agree on certain points you have brought up that if we (you) do as I did, throw a config his way, he may not learn anything but you don’t know that for fact. He may learn or may not we don’t know that. Sometimes people learn when you give them an example, I was that way for a long time until I got convertible enough to actually try different things on my own.

@ bman

To answer your fist question, NO I’m not going to support everyone’s configuration here, but if I see something that I can help with I will try at least!!! So you are telling me if krock came here and asked a question that is not business related (lets say for self study or a lab) then what you are saying is that you or someone else here would help him out a little more, maybe gave him a hint or so? To me if someone provides a part of a config they are looking for an example, and there is nothing wrong in giving examples.

And yes you could have had 20 posts in the time you typed up this one if they were "good cop bad cop"

If you follow the link I posted it takes you to the exact portion of the document that shows you how to do this. He did not have to read the entire page. If he did I would've linked the index page

If you cannot understand my point of view from reading what I posted than I will save my time to go boost my post count

I see your point but you didint answer my question. If Krock came here ans asked can you (us) give me an example of a route-map and ACL tied to it with all his spects because he needed it for his studdies and lab would you have helped him? its a simple yes or no question..

The linked page has an example

Sorry, I missed your question. Yes I would have helped him in the same manner as mellowd did. The point of my post was to highlight the comment made by ristau regarding $$$. The outcome would have remained the same and is common on this forum. We try and promote knowledge and critical thinking. The OP seems to be satisfied though

Dosent that take more time then just letting him know what steps he needs to take like:
- create an extended ACL
- Create a route map that will match extended ACL
- Apply the route map to the interface of choice

In my case it would, Unless I know of that document and can pull it up quickly.

You are truly taking this overboard now. The battle is over. We approach things differently and our opinions vary. I hope you will stay around though and assist those members when the rest of us fail. It will surely prove to be a great niche for you.

Edit: I was thinking of doing a separate post but figured that would be just rude of me! I wanted to note my 192 post count now though!

I guess we can leave it at that... Anybody having any issuess dont hasitate to ask... LOL

Whoopng 5 posts..

I didnt meant to cause any trouble... K4C thanks for the example I came up with somethig simmilar but not as good.

After the post from ristau I didnt want to ask anymore questions because it was clear I wouldnt recive any more hints after his last sentence... Which I thought he could have kept for himself.

Thanks everyone who helped and who didnt.
