Deployment Guide

35 VCF on VxRail Multirack Deployment using BGP EVPN
2. Create VLAN 1647 and assign an IP address. This VLAN is used to carry north-south traffic from the
Edge service cluster configured in Section 8.
sfo01-Leaf01A(config)# interface vlan1647
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1647)# description sfo01-w-uplink01
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1647)# no shutdown
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1647)# mtu 9216
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1647)# ip address 172.27.11.1/24
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1647)# exit
3. Create VLAN 1649. This VLAN provides north-south traffic flow between the transport nodes and the
Tier-1 Gateway you created in Section 8.
sfo01-Leaf01A(config)# interface vlan1649
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1649)# description sfo01-w-edge-overlay
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1649)# no shutdown
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1649)# mtu 9216
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-if-vl-1649)# exit
4. Configure VxRail node ports as VLAN members for VLANs 1647, 1649, and 2500.
sfo01-Leaf01A(config)# interface range ethernet1/1/17-1/1/18
sfo01-Leaf01A(conf-range-eth1/1/17-1/1/18)# switchport trunk allowed vlan
1647,1649,2500
sfo01-Leaf01A(conf-range-eth1/1/17-1/1/18)# end
5. Configure eBGP for the peering with the ESGs.
sfo01-Leaf01A(config)# router bgp 65101
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-bgp-65101)# neighbor 172.16.47.2
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# advertisement-interval 5
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# bfd
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# fall-over
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# password <bgp-password>
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# remote-as 65000
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# timers 4 12
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# no shutdown
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# exit
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-bgp-65101)# neighbor 172.16.47.3
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# advertisement-interval 5
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# bfd
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# fall-over
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# password <bgp-password>
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# remote-as 65000
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# timers 4 12
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# no shutdown
sfo01-Leaf01A(config-router-neighbor)# end
Note: The BGP password is set during the configuration of the Tier-0 gateway in Section 8.
6. Update the existing route map to allow the new networks to pass through the leaf-spine fabric.
