Deploying ACI Multisite from Scratch
Переглядів 34 тис.7 років тому
This video shows a demo of installing the Cisco Multisite Controller, configuring the InterPod Network (IPN) and configuring ACI fabrics for multisite. Lastly we'll deploy a stretched VRF/BD/EPG use case and test connectivity between the sites.
Deploying ACI Microsegmentation using the Vmware vDS
Переглядів 8 тис.8 років тому
This video covers an overview of ACI microsegmentation (uSeg) using the VMware vDS including deployment demo, and troubleshooting. We will also discuss the specific requirements & configuration necessary when using ESX hosts running on blade switches such as UCS B-Series.
Cisco Nexus 1000v: Understanding MAC Pinning
Переглядів 8 тис.14 років тому
This video gives a demo of how to configure and understand the new method of configuring uplinks for the Nexus 1000v version 4.0.4.SV1.2 called "MAC Pinning"
The Video is great with so much to learn, thanks.
you don't need to set vrf on the physical interfaces on the IPN. Just set vrf on the subinterfaces where you configured the IP addresses.
Excellent Video. Thank you very much.
Thanks for the informative vid!! One clarification question: (around 5-min of the vid) both FAB5 and FAB6 are shown using the same Fabric ID 1 and infra VLAN 4093. Shouldn't those value to be different for the two sites? For example FAB3 is initialized with Fabric ID 1; Infra VLAN 4093 and FAB6 is initialized as Fabric ID 2; Infra VLAN 4094? OR It wont matter?
Great demo! Thanks. One question, why not use ospf network type broadcast, which is the default network type for dot1q interfaces?
Because there is no gain. With broadcast you will have to worry about DR/BDR, high timers for convergence. Since it’s a point to point link with only 2 hosts, the choice is obvious.
Awesome video
Multisite well explained - Robert Burns - thank you for sharing...
Mr.Burns, Any roadmap on video for configuring ACI 5.0 via CLI?
Thank you Mr.Burns, your video was a great help in deploying MSO 3.0 in large government site with ACI 5.0 and IOS 15.0...really appreciate you efforts.
Hi Robert, great video ! I have two questions - does the pod i.d need to be different in both the sites? (The default is always 1 when you start configuring a new site). Second - the BD subnet that you configured: 1.1.1.254/24, is that deployed on both the sites? In your video you have only shown it to be deployed in Fab3.
cool ever
thank u so much this video s th best
thank for video. have you tried endpoints on Physical Domains (bare metal) ?
The best explanation
Great Job Rob!!!
Hi Robert, thanks for this video, it has been very useful. I got a question: Do I need to enable Micro-segmentation (adding pvlan and svlan) on VMM domain for intra-EPG isolation on base EPGs? Your demo uses the uEPG.
Good job
Hello Robert, Thanks for this. Do you have a detailed document on what happens if you have multiple spines connecting to multiple IPN devices? Let's say your fabric consist of 2 spines in each site and you need to hook them to the IPN? Or you want to hook an already existing Multi-pod to a multi-site
you just need to add more ISN switches, add the corresponding configuration for those switches, then update you APIC spine profile, interface selectors etc... then from MSO add the ports and teps needed on your sites
Hi Mr. Burns, Thanks for the presentation. I have serveral question regarding this. 1) . Does infra vlan need to be same for each sites. 2). For DTEP (ucast, mcast, mpod) and CPTEP address, is it must /32 address? or it can be any address on /24 or /27 segment?
Very well explained. .... thank you
Setting up useg in ACI for VDI deployments: See ua-cam.com/video/Np471JVW-qg/v-deo.html
Great....There could not be better way to explain the Multipod deployments...Can I ask/request for these software to set up my own Lab on my system...please let me know
This tutorial indeed is very good and helpful”. Thank you Robert!. “I really like the fact that the arguments are explained in detail so that are easier to understand.
I think you lose connectivity for those VMs using the port-groups deployed from APIC (there will be a fault on ACI related to this), but the port-groups cannot be deleted on VMware side because they are still attached to VMs. If you want to delete an EPG, first you need to deattach the port-group from them VMs and then delete de EPG from APIC.
Can anyone explain, to which FAB the MSC controllers are connected (Fab3 or Fab6) ? .
it does not matter. Only it need to reach the apic mgmt interface.
Hi Robert, Thanks for sharing this video with a global end to end approach on how to implement multi site. It is of a great assistance ! I've a question about managing contracts with the MSC. The scope of your use-case in the video was too limited to show any details about contracts. Would it be possible to create and use contracts between schema's. Because now it looks like (in my lab running 1.1.2) contracts do not get exposed for reuse between schema's. (contracts or other network related objects, like BD, etc.) Where as using the APIC it is possible to do so. Thx
Hi, Robert, this was beautifully presented well done! Having deployed MultiPod, it makes a lot of sense for Cisco to go this route for MultiSite. One question is will the MSC GUI interface be deployed or merged with the APIC GUI interface? I ask because Cisco should think about that as the MSC GUI is logical and easy to follow when the technology is well understood.
MSC and APIC will always remain separate. Each have their own purpose. APIC is far more feature rich at this point, whereas MSC is more based on Tenant policy stretching. There's much the MSC UI can't do yet, which is why it looks much more streamlined & simple. The upcoming improvements in 3.1 APIC will hopefully help address some of the UI challenges.
Hi Robert ..thanks for giving such wonderful video..... just need to know if you have any video like normal setup environment to ACI environment ...means traditional setup access switch then core switch and then fw then internet router and then outside world this setup converted into ACI setup....from scratch we need to know how data flow happen as i am looking for job for ACI support so that kind of videos will helpful..
Hi Naik, this will help you,,,ua-cam.com/video/2wdrQzaF5e8/v-deo.html
Excellent explanation! Thank you
Awesome end-to-end presentation/demo where presenter covers the installation, configuration, and stretched EPG/BD deployment on ACI Multi-Site, APICs, Switches, and IPN!
This was a really helpful explanation of microsegmentation in ACI using the vDS! One question, at the 5 minute mark you mention that you need the EX switches for network-based attributes (IP/MAC), but that you can still microsegment based on VM attributes without the EX switches. In the virtualization guide (www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/aci/apic/sw/1-x/virtualization/b_ACI_Virtualization_Guide_2_1_1/b_ACI_Virtualization_Guide_2_1_1_chapter_0100.html), Table 1 has a column titled VDS USeg (VM,IP,MAC) which seems to indicate the EX switches are required for VM attribute based microsegmentation in addition to IP/MAC. Can you help clarify that point?
@nicos808 Sorry, i'll correct myself, bugs in 1000v code... which is all stable now btw ;)
of course ;) Thanks. When I read this I had no idea, since then, and the bugs in vPC I know all about it! haha
@nicos808 "It doesn't require any port-channels to be configured on the upstream switches"
Thanks for this! I cant understand what you said after "....it doesnt require any port-channels to be configured on the ..........(what?)... switches?
Love it uncle robby-kelsey
