In my previous post “VXLAN Part VI: VXLAN BGP EVPN – Basic Configurations”, I have shown how to configure the VXLAN BGP EVPN on Nexus 9000v. This post is about BGP EVPN Control Plane operation.
Figure 7-1 represents the logical structure of the example VXLAN fabric. BGP peering is established between the VTEP Leaf switches and the Spine-11 switch, which is BGP Route Reflector (not shown in figure 7-1). Both VTEP Leaf switches have a local VRF context TENANT77 that has VNI 10077 (L3VNI) attached to it and used for routing between the hosts in different vlan/vn-segment. Hosts Café and Beef are connected to vlan 10 (192.168.11.0/24), which in turns is attached to vn-segment 10000 (L2VNI). Hosts Abba and Babe are connected to vlan 20 (192.168.12.0/24), which in turns is attached to vn-segment 20000 (L2VNI). We are using auto-generated RD/RT values and ARP-suppression in both L2VNIs. Physical topology and the configurations of the switches is presented in Appendix 1 at the end of the document. For simplicity, I have used only one uplink in each VTEP switches.
