SRv6 End.DT4 with Path Optimization

End.DT4 function provides L3VPN service over SRv6 data plane for the customers who use IPv4 address space. Working mechanism is almost same with MPLS data plane because we we will still have VRFs and MP-BGP. End.DT4 function provides FIB lookup in a specific tenant table (VRF) at the egress PE. This would be equivalent to the …


VxLAN Routing Distributed Gateway

A gateway is a device that ensures communication between VXLANs identified by different VNIs and between VXLANs and non-VXLANs. With the distributed gateway routing Layer 3 gateways are configured on leaf devices. With the distributed gateway deployment a leaf node only needs to learn the ARP entries of servers attached to it. VXLAN routing of …


Segment Routing TI-LFA SRLG Example

SRv6 End.DT4 Function

One of the functions can be used part of SRv6 address is End.DT4. End.DT4 profides L3VPN service over SRv6 data plane for the customers who use IPv4 address space. End.DT4 function provides FIB lookup in a specific tenant table (VRF) at the egress PE. This would be equivalent to the per-VRF VPN label in MPLS. When a …


VxLAN Routing Centralized Gateway

A gateway is a device that ensures communication between VXLANs identified by different VNIs and between VXLANs and non-VXLANs. With the centralized gateway routing Layer 3 gateways are configured on one device, usually on Spine layer. It is the easiest way of deploying gateways but it has some disadvantages; There will be a lot of …
