This video is a part of our webinar series, The modern, interoperable DC, which walks you through layer 2 connectivity between different types of resources. In Part 1 we guided 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.

In Part 2 we continued to enhance our DC with additional features made possible by open standards. We showed how to leverage a BGP router running on servers to provide layer 2 connectivity between heterogeneous resources, such as virtual machines, containers and bare metal servers (both legacy and FRR-based).

Now it’s time for Part 3!

In this part the speakers will explain: 👉How to connect resources in overlay with those in underlay and Internet 👉How to extend Layer 2 connectivity to public clouds 👉How to securely connect IoT devices and an Edge Computing server with a DC 👉What EVPN can do for your branch offices
