商品描述

The complete guide to building and managing next-generation data center network fabrics with VXLAN and BGP EVPN


This is the only comprehensive guide and deployment reference for building flexible data center network fabrics with VXLAN and BGP EVPN technologies. Writing for experienced network professionals, three leading Cisco experts address everything from standards and protocols to functions, configurations, and operations.


The authors first explain why and how data center fabrics are evolving, and introduce Cisco’s fabric journey. Next, they review key switch roles, essential data center network fabric terminology, and core concepts such as network attributes, control plane details, and the associated data plane encapsulation.


Building on this foundation, they provide a deep dive into fabric semantics, efficient creation and addressing of the underlay, multi-tenancy, control and data plane interaction, forwarding flows, external interconnectivity, and service appliance deployments. You’ll find detailed tutorials, descriptions, and packet flows that can easily be adapted to accommodate customized deployments. This guide concludes with a full section on fabric management, introducing multiple opportunities to simplify, automate, and orchestrate data center network fabrics.


  • Learn how changing data center requirements have driven the evolution to overlays, evolved control planes, and VXLAN BGP EVPN spine-leaf fabrics
  • Discover why VXLAN BGP EVPN fabrics are so scalable, resilient, and elastic
  • Implement enhanced unicast and multicast forwarding of tenant traffic over the VXLAN BGP EVPN fabric
  • Build fabric underlays to efficiently transport uni- and multi-destination traffic
  • Connect the fabric externally via Layer 3 (VRF-Lite, LISP, MPLS L3VPN) and Layer 2 (VPC)
  • Choose your most appropriate Multi-POD, multifabric, and Data Center Interconnect (DCI) options
  • Integrate Layer 4-7 services into the fabric, including load balancers and firewalls
  • Manage fabrics with POAP-based day-0 provisioning, incremental day 0.5 configuration, overlay day-1 configuration, or day-2 operations

《使用VXLAN和BGP EVPN建立和管理下一代資料中心網路架構的完整指南》

這是唯一一本關於使用VXLAN和BGP EVPN技術建立靈活資料中心網路架構的全面指南和部署參考。三位領先的思科專家針對經驗豐富的網路專業人士，從標準和協議到功能、配置和操作，提供了全面的解說。

作者首先解釋了資料中心架構為何演變，以及介紹了思科的架構之旅。接下來，他們回顧了關鍵交換機角色、資料中心網路架構術語和核心概念，如網路屬性、控制平面細節和相關的數據平面封裝。

在此基礎上，他們深入探討了架構語義、底層的高效建立和定址、多租戶、控制平面和數據平面的互動、轉發流程、外部互連以及服務器部署。您將找到詳細的教程、描述和封包流程，可輕鬆適應自定義部署。本指南最後還提供了一個完整的架構管理部分，介紹了多種簡化、自動化和協調資料中心網路架構的機會。


  • 了解資料中心需求的變化如何推動了覆蓋層、演進的控制平面和VXLAN BGP EVPN脊葉-葉網路架構的演進

  • 發現為什麼VXLAN BGP EVPN架構具有可擴展性、韌性和彈性

  • 實現對VXLAN BGP EVPN架構上的租戶流量進行增強的單播和多播轉發

  • 建立底層架構以高效地傳輸單播和多播流量

  • 通過第3層（VRF-Lite、LISP、MPLS L3VPN）和第2層（VPC）在外部連接架構

  • 選擇最適合的多POD、多架構和資料中心互連（DCI）選項

  • 將第4-7層服務集成到架構中，包括負載均衡器和防火牆

  • 使用基於POAP的Day-0配置、增量Day 0.5配置、覆蓋Day-1配置或Day-2操作來管理架構
