EVPN control-plane for overlay networks

Posted by     nmodena on Wednesday, November 16, 2016

I had the opportunity to talk about datacenter during ITNOG2 thank you guys!

I talked about the use EVPN as control plane for overlay networks, and how to exploit them to create distributed services between different datacenters. I also mentioned the use of EVPN type-5 with proxy-arp to reduce distribution of mac-address routes and completely eliminate layer-2, while maintaining compatibility with current clustering and HA solutions based on layer-2 but now distributed in multiple datacenters.
