A Design and Implementation of Multi-Routers and Firewall in a Multi-homed environment

The need for ultimate security in the enterprise network is significantly crucial in today’s network. Likewise, redundancy, availability, and reliability are the primary main key to an internet connection. Mostly, network administrators use multiple routers and firewalls in their networks. In essence, asymmetric traffic imposes a serious issue with those designs and in some occasions the network traffic might be disturbed. In order to address the asymmetric connection to the firewall, this work proposes by use of another segment network for multi-routers and a firewall called a fusion network. In addition, this paper takes advantage of the existing enhanced technology such as MP-BGP MPLS VPN. Moreover, applying to the real world is also considered. Finally, the comparison with other network designs and the performance of our design are discussed.
