Several small data center, non-Clos topologies are supported.
Each rack consists of 2 devices connected to each other via eth 0/46, eth 0/47, and eth 0/48. Devices in a rack form MCT (multi-chassis trunking).
| Items | Description |
|---|---|
| Intra-rack links | eth 0/46 and eth 0/47 are used for MCT and eth 0/48 is used for Layer 3 backup link |
| Inter-rack links | Links that interconnect the racks, also called fabric links |
| IBGP IPv4 neighbor | Established on the Layer 3 backup link |
| IBPG Layer 2 VPN EVPN neighbor | Established between the MCT nodes |
| EBGP IPv4 neighbors | Established on the Fabric links |
| EBGP Layer 2 VPN EVPN neighbors | Established from every node of every rack to every other remote rack node. The remote neighbor IP address is the remote device router ID. |
Small data centers are supported on SLX 9140, SLX 9150, and SLX 9250.
