has anyone moved from a network where your core speaks bgp to mpls where only your edge needs to? any pitfalls? I am tempted as the QFX range seems to be a bargain but won't take a full table

Jonny 290 posted:i mean kinda? fastly doesn't use routers. all of our switches get peering/transit jammed into them and we run bird on all the cache nodes to wrangle bgp bc commodity cpu is cheap. it's saved us millions in worthless cisco expenses hmm I am having trouble understand how this works, so your l3 switches get a summary table from bird? abigserve posted:you still need iBGP or whatever other protocol to advertise the routes throughout the core to populate the LIB. MPLS doesn't replace a routing protocol it just changes the way the lookup is performed for a packet as it transits the network. yeah I've labbed it in VMs and have iBGP between my PE routers and OSPF with MPLS hanging off that. our current 'core' is .. please don't make me talk about our currently core. it was before my time.

ohhh yeah that's a great idea. gives me something to think about. I'm not keen on MPLS as i don't want any of the advanced features at this stage. thanks

I thought maybe for RRs but for actually forwarding? what kind of speeds can you get on some normal hardware?

ate poo poo on live tv posted:Absolutely. Everything in AWS is virtualized anyway (i.e. customers have no knowledge of what IP is actually carrying their traffic between VPCs/regions) and I'm pretty sure most of AWS internal infra is ipv6 already. Plus isn't that how docker works? All the apps think they are running on 192.168.0.1 or whatever. I thought docker did serious nat fuckery instead of ipv6

kitten emergency posted:k8s is pretty decent if you design your app to run on it. one nice thing about php apps is they're stateless by nature so nicely suited to scale-out and containerization
