EDGE Connecting to a COREΒΆ

In this example, we configure the EDGE appliance of Customer 1 to connect to the CORE of ISP 1 via a SCION link on a dedicated physical interface as shown in the figure below.

../../../../_images/scion_link_single_edge.drawio2.svg

We need to configure the following:

  1. The physical network interface that is used for the SCION link in the interfaces section of the appliance configuration.

  2. The PARENT SCION link to ISP 1 in the scion/ases/neighbors section of the appliance configuration.

The relevant parts of the configuration for the EDGE appliance of Customer 1 are shown below.
