SDA L2 Hand-off on border node

krandrew — Mon, 17 Feb 2020 08:44:54 GMT

Hi All,

Is it possible to configure a L2 hand-off on a border node that is already configured with both IP-Transit and SD-Access Transit?

Also, are there any restrictions using L2 hand-off on a Cat9600?

Many thanks in advance.

I dont see a problem with this , as long as this is a dedicated interface which will be needed to be setup as a trunk for L2 handoff

Im not aware of any HW limitiations at this point.

Hi,

No Restriction, but the recommendation is to use a separate device for L2 Border handoff to safeguard the entire Network meltdown due to Spanning tree issues.. Hope this helps..
