What is EVPN-VXLAN Anyways?

Start learning cybersecurity with CBT Nuggets. courses.cbt.gg/security
In this video, CBT Nuggets trainer Knox Hutchinson covers the nitty-gritty details about what EVPN is and how it interacts with VXLAN and MPLS.
Before you jump into the deep end of deploying EVPN-VXLAN, it's crucial that you understand the underlying technologies. EVPN and VXLAN are actually separate things - in the service provider world, EVPN interacts with MPLS to solve similar problems as EVPN-VXLAN.
Watch Knox explain what it really means to separate the control plane from the data plane and what EVPN, VXLAN and EVPN-VXLAN are actually doing for you. He dives deep into how JUNOS device's Packet Forwarding Engine (PFE) interacts with the Routing Engine (RE).

The amount of times i have rewinded this video is insaneee... Speaks volumes about the quality of content. Kudos!

[@JasonBourg]

Knox, this is great! thank you for sharing!

[@KeithTownsend]

Very good explanation of EVPN/VXLAN. More importantly, thank you for setting up by establishing the relationship between the control plane and the data plane.

[@wairisson]

Really nice explanation, congrats!

[@vairo-]

Great video! Thanks 😊

[@saudreyaz4994]

quality content, liked it very much, thanks

[@brianchew8087]

I thank you very much for this content. Thank you for your effort

[@anujjaiswal7640]

hey u made its complex feature in simple way , Kudos

[@UniqSkills]

Thank you very much. Nice info

[@HaakonReppen]

Great video!! Thanks

[@mahdim107]

Excellent, thank you very much, Sir

[@NGN_Next_Generation_Netwok]

Thanks, great video

[@citizenoftheworldsz9]

perfect explanation!

[@BindasBadshah]

Very nicely explain..

[@HimanshuSharma1981]

Would be great if the link to the other nuggets referred in this video were linked to this one or if a playlist was created. This is a great video, but I cannot find the other videos.

[@hosamhamdy8230]

Thanks alot

[@zhomartaaa2845]

Thanks Bro!

[@nextensen]

Cool video! What are you using to draw and write like if you are on a good old paperboard? It looks amazingly good in your content!

[@filipecduarte]

Hi. Thanks for the video. In the transport networks we allredy use gmpls. We have 3 planes. Management, signaling and data plane. Is good to see this technology in the L2 L3 networks.

[@realitynuggets6204]

Thank you very much. Still confused here as some newer QFXs can do L3 VXLAN (Trident3 based), and some cannot (Tomahawk based) like the 5100, 5200. Is this control plane/data plane separation something inherent to the chipset used? Really appreciate this video.

[@simon_bingham]

Thankyou

I'd really like to know what software you are using for your blackboard. I want one.

[@joeharyar9873]

Hi...If vxlan is used and vtep tunnel created in the overlay network, do we need to have mplsoudp too? In what scenario we use mplsoudp over vxlan? Thanks

[@scottreeve5716]

Great video. That part I needed the most is 6:14 or so. How is the advertisement done?

[@bluesblue6453]

Is there a video series about this?

[@TechnoKing108]

I like to know about stretched vlan. Does it work over MPLS ? or EPL

[@rockerobertson4002]

Is this essentially a newer more efficient STP?

[@benjishohet]

5:30 was pretty painful to listen to - "sends a Frame over the Layer 3 infrastructure" XD

[@ConciertosGJO]

What tablet you use as whiteboard???? Please !! Great explanation, just one comment. BGP is only for IPv4, and here we use MP-BGP 🙂

[@atexnik]

8:33 multicast and vxlan? What do you mean by that? You only mentioned evpn so far before this timecode. If I guess it right, by multicast you mean flood and learn mechanism, and by evpn you mean the exchange of MAC addresses in advance. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[@dixienormous25]

At the beginning you mention EVPN can use OSPF to populate the RT. But then you say EVPN is nothing more than BGP. Is the 2nd comment meant to say youd only realistically use BGP EVPN because of its robustness?

[@roufkoroth6194]

What is mean by qfx

[@ksundeep07]

Is there a continuation for this video?

[@cbtnuggets]

Yes! It's a part of our JNCIP-ENT course: www.cbtnuggets.com/it-training/juniper/jncip-ent

[@es3t]

Oh man those diagrams are to blurred :/

[@trial000000000000001]

EUREKA!

[@insitesirl4486]

Kinda sounds like l2tp
