This can be achieved via OSPF or ISIS etc… Since the last two blogs used OSPF, we will use ISIS for IP connectivity for VPLS 400

Setup IP connectivity among the MPLS routers or VPLS Edges (VEs).

Recall the generic MPLS network service provisioning procedures we used in the MPLS ePipe and VPRN articles: If the VPLS 400 is configured correctly on the routers, all the virtual PCs on the same IP subnet should be able to ping each other by learning the MAC addresses that are flooded initially over the VPLS 400. All routers are connected to virtual PCs, VPC-66, VPC-77, VPC-88 and VPC-99 respectively. R6, R7 and R8 are Nokia 7750 routers, and R9 is a Juniper MX router.

The following shows the MPLS VPLS interop test setup on EVE-NG on a Google’s Chrome web browser on the Windows 10 PC:

#EVE NG VS GNS3 SOFTWARE#

There is no client software setup like GNS3 and EVE-NG is very useful for training and causal network verification. Once the EVE-NG is installed on the PC, all you need is a web browser to logon to the EVE-NG VM to setup and verify your network.

I note that EVE-NG needs more CPU cycles and RAM to run for a given network test config on a PC than GNS3 but EVE-NG does not require any client software. Once you have the EVE-NG setup with the above router images, you can go-ahead to start the EVE-NG VM under VMWare Workstation or Player. Please refer to the following links for EVE-NG, Nokia 7750 and Juniper vMX router images installation:

VMWare Workstation 12.5.5 (the free VMWare Player will work).

Windows 10 PC (Intel i5 6500 with 16GB RAM).

The following is my PC setup for interop testing using Nokia 7750 and Juniper MX routers: Therefore, seeing VPLS in action on a Windows 10 PC without risking a production network is still useful. There are still many MPLS VPLS deployments in the world. While MPLS VPLS (RFC 4761) is a rather old layer 2 VPN network service and new L2 VPN deployments are likely based on EVPN (RFC 7209) due to its total separation of control and data planes for improved scalability and stability. Similar to my other articles, you can perform this MPLS VPLS interop testing using Nokia 7750 and Juniper MX routers all on a Windows PC. Its old name is UNETLAB and it has been around for a few years.

In this blog, I will show how to config and verify Nokia 7750 and Juniper MX routers for MPLS VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service) network service using a new PC-based network emulator software called EVE-NG ( EVE-NE is actually not a new kid in town. Until recently, it was a winner for the best all-around CCENT or CCNA router.īelow, there are some of the common and general types of cables that you will face in your Cisco Certified Network Associate 200-301 (CCNA) or Cisco Certified Entry Networking Technician 100-105 (CCENT) home lab so that you can build a connection of your Cisco router or Cisco to switch.įor CCNA and CCNP certification exam training, Cisco Packet Tracer 7.3 is a powerful network simulator that allows students to build networks with an almost infinite number of devices and experience troubleshooting without having to purchase an actual Cisco router or switch.In the previous articles, I showed how to interop MPLS ePipe and VPRN network services between Nokia 7750 and Cisco 7200 routers on GNS3 ( ) on a Windows PC. But as prices have come down in the XM and 1800/2800 series. It would be a great CCNA lab router 4 years ago. As it also supports 12.4 and can have all types of modules installed and it supports MPLS. 3560 has been in CCNP labs and Cisco CCIE labs for a few years now since they are coming at very low prices. Now we will talk about another Layer 3 switch that is starting to pop up in many CCNA labs Cisco 3560 Switch. Next, we have Cisco 2950-T, 2950-G, 2950-C and any other 2950 that runs EI (Enhanced Image) iOS. So this is a great, low-cost switch that is probably some kind in your lab. It is a layer 2 switch that basically runs 98% of the commands that are included in both the CCENT and CCNA exams.
