Juniper SRX240
| Posted by Nutnut, 04-01-2010, 07:45 PM | | Hi All,
I'm about to colo some kit in a DC but Im struggling a little with the IP routing situation and firewall config. They have informed me that they assign a Primary address to the server and then secondary ranges are routed via the primary. I believe this method of routing is called IP-encapsulation or IP-Tunnelling or maybe even IP-over-IP?
Does this have any significance on the config of a Juniper SRX240?
What Im thinking is that Ill put the Primary Address on the External interface, assign an address from the secondary range to the internal interface and put a default route in that points to the primary?
Seems easy enough but they seemed to make quite a point of this method of routing. Think it would have been more of an issue if I didnt have a firewall/router acting as a gateway?
Any issues with the above?
P.S. Im new to Juniper as I got bored waiting for Cisco stock to become available and its a different animal altogether with a STEEP learning curve!

Next day support should only run you about $280. If not, plenty of documentation can be found on Juniper's website here: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_U...ICE/index.html

All in a working now!
