Project 2 To Do List - jwells24/Tech-Journal GitHub Wiki

Plan and Overview

  • In project 2, we will be configuring two HAproxy servers, one new web server, and creating the OPT network. Along with this, we will be using VRRP for the OPT network as well as keepalived for the HAproxy servers. Below is my plan of how I'm going to accomplish this project.

Ordered Plan

  1. Create the OPT network on Vyos01 and Vyos02.

    • Add the OPT interface as well as configure it to reach the internet with DNS rules and NAT.
    • Configure VRRP for the OPT network and get that working.
  2. Configure Web01 and Web02 to be working correctly.

    • Network Web02 and set up the web page to display server name, change web01 to show server name in web page as well.
    • Test that xubuntu-wan is able to access both web pages and that they are working correctly.
  3. Configure HAProxy servers

    • Network both HAProxy servers and connect them to the web servers so that load balancing is working.
    • Configure Keepalived for the HAproxy servers
  4. Go back to the VYOS routers and configure port forwarding so that any HTTP request will go to the OPT network and the load balancers virtual IP.

    • Delete old Port forwarding rule, and add a new one for this.
