Posted: Wed Sep 13, 2017 12:23 am
Hello friends!
After some time, we spent together with my friend Alain and here is result.
It is Proof of concept lab how NEXUS VXLAN can work over MPLS core network.
Literally VPN over L3 network.
Technologies involved:
MPLS, VRF, MVPN, MSDP, Nexus vPC, Nexus VXLAN.
I recommend first try to do it by self
I providing you a workbook for it as well. Tasks are given what you have to achieve in result.
Lab itself has right answers in the exported configs, and it is WORKING solution for this lab.
Start-up configs are disabled, to run this lab empty, no configs. If you stuck, you always you can unlock lab, red button on side bar and open cfg on side bar to look what we did and how.
Of course, you can set boot lab from exported, to see how it works fully configured.
Lab IS HEAVY. In the workbook are given notes about which images used and wat resource it need.
I ran this lab on ESXi EVE VM, x20 vCPU and 64G RAM.
Good luck in labbing,
Regards
UD
