Learn how to set up an Equinix Fabric Cloud Router (FCR) on AWS from start to finish, even if you’re new to the platform. Katie guides you step-by-step, starting with signing up for the FCR trial on the AWS Marketplace, where she shows how to locate the listing, complete a brief form, and finalize your account setup using the information provided by AWS and Equinix. Once signed in, she demonstrates how to create a cloud router by selecting a location, entering the subscription key, and configuring the router with the standard trial package. Finally, she walks through creating a secure, dedicated connection between FCR and AWS, showing you how to set up and manage a Direct Connect link seamlessly. By the end, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to establish a robust connection between your Equinix Fabric Cloud Router and AWS.

In this video, we'll show you how to connect a Fabric Cloud Router to the Google Cloud Platform. We begin with creating a connection from a Fabric Cloud Router to Google Cloud Platform using our Quick Connect feature. After the connection is submitted, we'll configure BGP in Google Cloud. We'll add the Peer ASNs for both connections and take the IP addresses provided by Google. Then we return to the Equinix portal to configure BGP on the Fabric Cloud Router. We use the Peer IP addresses obtained from GCP and apply these changes to the primary and secondary connections. Then we'll confirm that the routes are active. We'll head to the Cloud Router Inventory and view the Active Routes. Finally, we view the Route Tables on both the AWS and Azure sides of this connection to confirm that we have interconnectivity between three cloud environments using Fabric Cloud Router.

We cant able to apply the router filter policies(RFP) when the Peerings are down on FCR. By the time we apply the Filter policies, all routes learnt from peers are advertised to the other peers resulting in downtime due to loop(unwanted routing). Even if we are quick enough to apply the policies, Fabric backend can only able to process one Filter policy at a time. If you try to apply/save the other policies it gives you an error as FCR is in Transient state. As a best practice we need to have Filter policies enabled first and then turn on the BGP peering to avoid loops/sub optimal routing.2KViews1like3CommentsTop Blogs - Jan 2024
