This video is a part of our series "The modern, interoperable DC", which walks you through connectivity between different types of resources.

Part 1 will guide you through a solution for DC connectivity based on a combination of FRR, Unnumbered BGP (IPv4 with IPv6 link-local NH) and eBPF. This mix produces an automated discovery of bare metal and XaaS environments and can be run on any COTS as it uses only open-source and standardized features.

We will explain: 1. The evolution of the data center and its impact on the last mile for operations 2. How to handle the growing number of devices and configurations needed 3. How to create a proper automated discovery in a data center using: - Unnumbered BGP (IPv4 with IPv6 link-local NH) - Free Range Routing - eBPF 4. The type of issues will you encounter and how to overcome them
