MLXe,VDX to Providers Edge Router OSPF Configuration

Sazon — Wed, 20 May 2020 16:04:59 GMT

Hi Guys,

Please help to create a simple OSPF configuration guide to my new project.

Please include the LAG between two MLX routers configuration.

Thank you and keep safe everyone.

Regards,

Sazon

A typical LAG configuration for the MLX can look like this:



lag "lagmlx" dynamic id 10
 ports ethernet 6/4 ethernet 8/4
 primary-port 8/4
 deploy
 port-name "Link-1" ethernet 6/4
 port-name "Link-2" ethernet 8/4

From there you can configure VLANs on the member interfaces and VE interfaces for OSPF:

vlan 22 name PA
tagged ethe 6/4 ethe 8/4
router-interface ve 22

VE-configuration:

interface ve 22
#
# OSPF interface configuration goes here
# ip ospf area 0
# ip address 10.0.0.1/24

Have fun with the MLXe, its a pretty big and cool device 😉

Hi Sir,

Thank you for the reply. It helps me a lot.

Can you share also a sample config for HA VRRP. And simple config for uplink on the topology.

Thanks,

Sazon

VRRP with an example is described

Brocade(config)# router vrrp-extended
Brocade(config)# interface ve 10
Brocade(config-vif-10)# ip address 10.10.10.25/24
Brocade(config-vif-10)# ip vrrp-extended vrid 10
Brocade(config-vif-10-vrid-10)# backup priority 50
Brocade(config-vif-10-vrid-10)# ip-address 10.10.10.254
Brocade(config-vif-10-vrid-10)# activate
