I'd love to ask Dinesh why VXLAN???  
-I mean what was wrong with MPLS labels for these DC folks?
If you think about it VXLAN is like VPN label directly on top of IP (just a
tenant separator).
But there's no concept of stacking VXLAN headers unlike in MPLS, -that is no
extensibility for other applications (e.g. TE = source routing = service
chaining, or other example would be micro services = VPNs),
The EVPN CP for VXLAN is just another patch borrowed from SP folks, they
still need ACLs for micro services and god knows what they will come up with
for service chaining (PBR I guess) both utterly un-scalable solutions.
Looks like DC folks have the tendency of reinventing the wheel again and
again. 
All of these DC "solutions" could have been solved by simple well
established MPLS:  FabricPath, TRILL, LISP, VXLAN, NVGRE, OTV and Shortest
Path Bridging (SPB). 
Not mentioning all the crazy complexity where all these need to interface
with MPLS backbone at the DC boundaries (while preventing L2 loops).

Finally with the latest generation of nexus switches they seem to finally
realize that MPLS is the path.

Re: [c-nsp] EVPN Book/paper recommendation

2018-07-14 Thread Sami Joseph
Thanks, why isn't there so many books about the new SP-DC and EVPN, its not
new, I guess.

Has anyone seen "SP EVPN" deployed any where ? Asia, Europe even ? I wonder
if its time for EVPN to go into Enterprise networks and SP, replacing
MPLSoUDP or MPLSoGRE and VPLS. I mean its still BGP carrying the Mac Info
and its only a new data plane, am I missing any fundamental difference ?

They are both focused on the datacenter, but the principals are the same

Have you read the RFCs?

I.e., read this first (if you haven't already) 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7209 and then this 
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7432 (assuming you want to use MPLS instead of 
VXLAN).

They're always my go-to place to understand a new (to me) technology. Then read 
papers and books by vendors and operators after, to get an idea of how to 
implement the technology.

Cheers,
James.

Heya

I'm looking for book/paper recommendation on EVPN, specially for use-cases
in Carrier Ethernet deployments, replacing IETF L2VPN implementation and
deployments?

I found this book by Ivan Pepen., but it doesnt cover that.
