Ultimate ADVPN Setup Guide: BGP & OSPF Hub and Spoke

Looking to set up ADVPN with BGP & OSPF Hub and Spoke configuration? This ultimate guide breaks down the process step by step for easy implementation.

[@staticroute]

ADVPN is an enhancement to dialup VPNs that allows Spoke to Spoke VPNs to dynamically form on demand, therefore virtually achieving a full mesh VPN with just a single IPSec VPN configuration. The auto-discovery packets exchange between sender (Hub) and receiver (Spokes) make this possible through shortcut messages! the biggest advantage is simplified routing whether you choose to use BGP or OSPF, the config remains relatively simple! Enjoy!

@@rjnasr8078 😬 hey bro, to be honest, I’m not yet loyal to either one of them, but I want to give EVE a chance for a while…

@@staticroute I had a lot of issues with GNS3 and it was very time consuming. So far eve-ng seems to be smoother.

​​⁠I noticed the same thing but both on EVE and GNS3, in my case configs that works one moment stop working for no reason, turns out it was related to device license status, if it turns to ‘invalid’, then all hell breaks loose…be on the lookout for that
