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. //rant// adam netconsultings.com ::carrier-class solutions for the telecommunications industry:: ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
Re: [c-nsp] EVPN Book/paper recommendation
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 ? ~Sam On Sat, Jul 14, 2018 at 12:40 PM, Pete Lumbis wrote: > Dinesh Dutt, the co-author of VxLAN wrote two books you can get for free* > They are both focused on the datacenter, but the principals are the same > for both DC and non-DC use cases. > > BGP in the datacenter: http://cumulusnetworks.com/bgp > EVPN in the datacenter: https://cumulusnetworks.com/lp/evpn- > data-center-oreilly/?utm_source=social+media_term= > EVPN_campaign=2018+EVPN+in+the+data+center+eBook > > * Behind a regwall.

Dinesh Dutt, the co-author of VxLAN wrote two books you can get for free* They are both focused on the datacenter, but the principals are the same for both DC and non-DC use cases.

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.
