Solution-specific reference architectures
The following sections describe solution-specific reference architectures, like for example for
Video Surveillance or Data Center implementation, using the VSP 4000.
Multi tenant — fabric connect
This fabric connect based solution leverages the fabric capabilities of the VSP platforms; a
VSP 7000 core and a VSP 4000 edge. This solution provides the ability to run up to 24 VRFs
for each wiring closet and is well suited for multi-tenant applications. The zero-touch core is
enabled by the fabric connect end-point provisioning capabilities.
If this solution must support IPv6, then a central router-pair routes all IPv6 traffic. The IPv6
traffic is tunneled from each wiring closet to the IPv6 routers by extending L2 VSNs to the q-
tagged router interfaces
Note:
IPv6 is not supported in the current release of the VSP 4000.
