In this session will understand about the fabric Nords.
And I want to clarify this thing.
So suppose if we see this particular diagram I want to log into NSX manager and I want to clarify all
these things that we have in this particular topology.
So here you can see that I have a host one host to on top of these host.
You can clearly see the Williams virtual machines either.
This is inside the reason camp.
Then you can see that I have one other reason that is management where I have host 3 and 4 inside that
you can see I have edge devices and these devices are in clusters so I have cluster one and cluster
two.
Apart from that we have been giving him host.
And on top of giving him we have one of the virtual machine.
So let me log into the NSX manager and let me show you what exactly all these things are and then I'll
come back to these slides and then I'll covered a few of the theoretical things all right.
So I'm inside the NSX manager and here you can see on the top you can go through the system and let
me increase the foreign side as well.
All right.
So I increase the font size.
Now you can see that I can go through this system and you can see the fabric I have fabric inside that
I can go inside the nodes.
So when once I go inside the nodes you can see on the top that you have various options related to nodes
what options we have.
We have hosted transport node we have edge transport node we have edge in the cluster cluster and then
we have the E6 a bridge cluster.
Now host in transport.
No.
What does it mean.
So let's see all those things one by one.
So when we are here at the host transport nobody can see that I have option either I can use the non
VM product say for example giving him hypervisor is on I can go and check the we have we're hyper like
this.
So suppose we are inside this cabin hypervisor give him host.
And if I show you this I can select it and I can show you what is configured here clearly we can see
the IP address and the hostname and then the NSX configurations.
What is important and what I want to show here that we can see the transport John.
This is belonging to overlay and we'll see that.
What does it mean by a different type of transport.
John we'll see.
This is NSX created.
What's the name of the NSX which you can see and it's X really is one the uplink profile in the profile
section we'll discuss about this that you can create various type of profile and you can call.
So here you can see the uplink profile the LDP profile the IP assignment then the rest of the thing
IP assignment IP pool the physical Nick each one uplink then the Vinick Wally migrations we have all
these options correct.
Let me click finish because this is already created.
I don't want to change anything then we'll go inside the V Center in V Center we know that we have two
different type of reason.
So let me stretch they say you can see the name of the reasons.
You can a reason is yellow management religion age yellow comp component are CMB 0 1.
Now inside management we know that okay we have a three and four.
So let me go back to the diagram if I can stretch that diagram so if I go back let me pull that take
Come here
you can see so in the diagram you can clearly see that you have an Essex.
Let me sketch a little bit more.
So over one and two you can see the CMC have the Irene inside the reason 0 1 and then you have this
region that is management where we have all the edge correct so the same thing we are seeing here and
why I am focusing more on this because later we'll see that we have some differences as well in these
things.
So let me do one thing let me select any of them and let me show you their description.
If I go in there will click through the management it is telling that there is no transport node you
want to configure I don't want to configure at the moment we'll see their difference.
I'll come here and double click to the p excise 0 2.
And you can see the description here.
So first of all the name the external lady congregational state or to the IP the always tape.
Yes it's say the US version.
And what do you want to show here.
Is this transport John.
So this is again overly computer as it overlay also you can go and check this is configured as a overlay
as well correct.
Great.
And these guys actually they are configured just as edge.
So we'll see that on top of these host or on top of these hypervisor is we have edge configured great.
All right.
So let me men made this what are the things we can see.
You can see the summary here as well.
What's the NSX configure the configuration.
No district is transport NSX version and in Wiggins etc. All those things we can see here.
I can go to any of the hypervisor and then I can select action.
You can see minus gags our transport gender remove transportation.
So we're getting good options very much clear from this particular host transport that what exactly
it is failing.
If you come here and see what's the is type or 2 version and or the transport very much same type of
thing.
Now let's go and check the IDs transport north.
So we have edge configured as well so I'll go inside the edge.
Once I'm inside the edge you can see I have edge 1 2 3 and 4.
And any of the edge in the edge you can see that we have to transport John.
What is the overlay one is the relay will discuss about this over land we land.
What does it mean on what's the significance.
Our deployment I began to see this the virtual machine the management IP the NSX the version the control
connectivity management connectivity everything we can see here the name you can see so one two three
four.
All those things he can see correct now I'm not doing anything but you have option you can go and check
in the edit section that you have NSX for and if you want to see the videos you can see the various
works the uplink profile what's the IP assignment IP pool uplink etc so it is connected with two videos
and we can go and check those things are like great then finally you have the edge cluster and this
is the cluster.
So here clearly you can see I have to cluster and one of the cluster having to edge right.
So if I go and see for example click Edit you can see that's the name of the cluster the edge cluster
profile you can see the name of the profile and then you can see that in cluster one I have to edge
cancel this language you can go and check the other cluster and here also you can see that you have
two it's three and four.
So we are just verifying that what's diagram you have and we really will find all these description
and all these conflagration inside the NSX manager so you can go to the dashboard system fabric and
n and you can see all these confirmation.
Let me quickly go back to the slides.
So I'm back to the slide and the same thing that I have described you over there you can go and check
configured not configured.
We can go and check their details about that.
And this is one of the very important nodes we have here.
So when you have seen the management and decomp regions in that case and you find that inside decomp
region there was the Williams inside management region.
So let me go back I can see inside management is and you have the edge and that's the change we have
actually in the NSX t contains it's all tape at this.
So this the change between NSX to our tree and NSX that is too large for that.
Now that is devices they can take their own decision means they can do encapsulation and absolution.
So if I read this particular paragraph in context that it's transport node in NSX continue its own tape
within the edge and no longer requires the hypervisor to perform encapsulation decaf solution a function
on its behalf well an encapsulated packet is disdain for an edge.
It is delivered in its encapsulated form directly to the edge in order to pack this means.
Now they're able to do their encapsulation decouple solution by their own in the previous version they
are taking the hill from the host Kernel Configuration we can see at the moment.
So they are taking help but no they're independent and they can take independent encapsulation decaf
solution decisions because they're working as a tip.
