Preserve Retain Route Target All on
Boarder Leaf Devices
XCO preserves the retain route-target all
configuration on boarder leaf devices in any config sync operations (for example, any
sync refresh from XCO to IP
fabric).
In XCO 3.5.0, the retain
route-target all configuration is applied under "l2evpn address-family"
on the spine and super-spine devices, but not on the leaf and border-leaf devices.
If you manually configure retain route-target all as out-of-band on the border-leaf or leaf
devices, XCO detect this as a drift and reconcile..
Starting from XCO 3.6.0, for Data Center Interconnect (DCI) scenarios, ensure that
the retain route-target
all configuration is present on the border-leaf devices. Therefore, XCO
will no longer manage the retain route-target all configuration, specifically, on the
border-leaf devices. This means that XCO will neither configure nor detect drift and
reconcile for any retain
route-target all configuration on the border-leaf devices, except for
non-Clos multi rack fabric.
The following table describes the
retain route-target all
configuration for a non-Clos and Clos fabric:
| Fabric Type |
Device Type |
Description |
| Non-Clos |
Singel Rack |
Border Leaf |
XCO does not push 'retain route-target all' on leaf or
border-leaf devices, so it disowns the 'retain route-target all'
configuration for these devices. |
| Multi Rack |
Border Leaf or Leaf |
XCO preservers the 'retain route-target all' configuration,
configures it as part of the fabric configuration, and detects
and reconciles any drift during DRC. |
| Clos (3-Stage or
5-Stage) |
Border Leaf |
XCO disowns the 'retain route-target all' configuration,
neither configuring it nor identifying and reconciling drift as
part of DRC. |
Example Configuration for Non-Clos Single Rack Fabric
The following is an example configuration for non-Clos single rack fabric:
efa fabric show --name common-fabric
Fabric Name: common-fabric, Fabric Description: , Fabric Type: non-clos, Fabric Status: configure-success, Fabric Health: Green
+--------------+-------+-----------+------------+------------+--------------+-------------+-------------------+-----------------+---------+-------+
