Policy Based Routing-Introduction

Labs

These topologies are not representing real scenarios.
Client VM: Ubuntu
Server VM: TurnKey Linux OrangeHRM
Cisco Routers: 3725 adventreprise  12.4(18)

Case #1 – PBR based on destination port

Configs: pbrcase1

PBR case1

Case #2 – PBR based on source addresses

Configs: pbrcase2

PBR case2

Case #3 – Load sharing based on traffic type with redundant gateways

PBR case3

Case #4 – PBR with NBAR

Be careful with NBAR in production environments !

Configs: pbrcase4

PBR case4

Case #5 – PBR on JunOS

Topology: same as Case #1

Config:
