Fabric UseCase - kratna888/Contrail_Command GitHub Wiki

List of UseCases

  1. Discovering the underlay ( Brownfield - on boarding )

         a. Creating a fabric ( Creating Namespace ) - IPV4, ASN, CREDs
    
         b. Onboarding  - Discovers all the interfaces in the underlay devices 
    
  2. Defining BMS ( Adding Servers to the infra )

  3. Defining an overlay

          a. Creating BMS instances 
    
          b. Defining the role of the node - LEAF 
    
          C. Updating the LEAF /TOR switch configuration with the Virtual Network the BMS belongs to, 
    
          d. Associating the LEAF /TOR switch configuration with the CSN node 
    
          e. Above b, c, & d - results in extending VLANs to the TOR. 
    
  4. Leanring existing BMS workload IPs

  5. Issuing / Assigning new IPs to new BMS workloads

  6. pinging between BMS2 and BMS4 ( L2 - EVPN Type 2)

  7. pinging between BMS2 and BMS4 ( L3)

  8. Applying Security Groups to BMS interface

  9. Edge/Leaf software upgrade

  10. BMS - LCM
