Hi We currently run a number or pseudo wires over our MPLS network with the targets for the pwire being the loopback of the remote router. This means that our pwires re-route in the event of a primary link failure as long as there is an alternative p...
Hi We're currently about to start a HW refresh project to replace EoL N9Ks with new N9K hardware, so a like for like from the perspective of ports etc.This is for VXLAN leafs running OSPF, MPBGP and VPC. For the replacement we'd like to cause minima...
Hi I’m hoping you can help me with my understanding of IaC and in particular the pros and cons of a full IaC solution vs automating common repeatable tasks via ansible? For example if I’m building a new fabric what benefits do I get from using IaC go...
Hi We're currently deploying NDFC and as part of this I've been looking at some of the programmable reports for inventories, modules, SNs etc but the pre-defined templates don't do exactly what I want.So I was looking at the REPORT templates with a v...

Hi AshSeThanks a lot for the comprehensive response, that aligns with what I've read. Out of interest have you undertaken a HW swap using this method and if so what kind of hit do you see on end hosts, i.e. is it a sub-second thing that servers etc w...
HiThanks for the response and info.Do you have any links or documents where this behavior is explained or is this something that you've seen when deploying NDFC?ThanksMalc
