MLAG can be used at various places in the network to eliminate bottlenecks and provide resiliency, including the spine layer and leaf layer. But the most common use case for M-LAG is using this feature at the Leaf layer. At the leaf of the network, servers with multiple interfaces connect to the switches using NIC …
In the new generation data center networking design, we have “clos” topologies which is based on network–based spine-and-leaf architecture. CLOS topology basically have 2 tier, Spine (Core) and Leaf (Access). Every leaf switch is connected to all Spine switches. The spine layer is the backbone of the network and is responsible for interconnecting all leaf …
