This Github repository contains the configuration files necessary for setting up EVPN (Ethernet VPN) using Cumulus Linux and Quagga on the Reference Topology. Only Server01->Server04, Leaf01->Leaf04 and Spine01->Spine02 are used.
The flatfiles in this repository will set up a BGP unnumbered routing fabric between the leafs and spines, and will trunks between switches and the servers in that rack.
git clone https://github.com/cumulusnetworks/cldemo-evpn
cd cldemo-evpn
vagrant up oob-mgmt-server oob-mgmt-switch
vagrant up leaf01 leaf02 leaf03 leaf04 spine01 spine02 server01 server02 server03 server04
vagrant ssh oob-mgmt-server
sudo su - cumulus
ssh server01
ping 172.16.1.104
and
VirtualBox or KVM
vagrant destroy -f leaf01
vagrant up leaf01
vagrant destroy -f
By default this Vagrantfile is setup for Virtualbox. To use this Demo for KVM use the Vagrantfile-kvm
mv Vagrantfile-kvm Vagrantfile
All other directions remain the same

Cumulus Linux is a software distribution that runs on top of industry standard networking hardware. It enables the latest Linux applications and automation tools on networking gear while delivering new levels of innovation and flexibility to the data center.

Cumulus VX is a virtual machine produced by Cumulus Networks to simulate the user experience of configuring a switch using the Cumulus Linux network operating system. Vagrant is an open source tool for quickly deploying large topologies of virtual machines. Vagrant and Cumulus VX can be used together to build virtual simulations of production networks to validate configurations, develop automation code, and simulate failure scenarios.
Vagrant topologies are described in a Vagrantfile, which is a Ruby program that
tells Vagrant which devices to create and how to configure their networks.
vagrant up
will execute the Vagrantfile and create the reference topology
using Virtualbox. It will also use Ansible to configure the out-of-band
management network.
