Hi All,
I have a design question. We have basic fabric site that consists of 2 x co-located Border/CP nodes and ~ 50 Fabric Edge nodes. We have an L2 only pool that we need to extend outside of our SDA fabric to where a firewall/default gateway is located. From what I can see we have a 3 options to achieve this.
1) Install a dedicated Border Node and configure L2 handoff for the required L2 only pool
2) Configure L2 handoff for the required L2 only pool on one of our exiting co-located Border/CP nodes
3) Connect a port(s) on one of our Fabric Edge nodes to the external network and configure it as a standard trunk/access port that carries the L2 only pool VLAN to the external firewall.
From what I see all three options achieve the same thing, however I dont know if there any pros/cons when considering which option to use? I understand in all instances that we can only handoff on one border/edge so as not to create a loop which is understood and accepted for the required service.
Thanks
