1
00:00.000 --> 00:04.960
So over the next few skills,

2
00:04.960 --> 00:09.040
we're going to be looking at Cloud On-Ramp for AWS,

3
00:09.040 --> 00:13.640
for Azure, and for Google Cloud completely separately.

4
00:13.640 --> 00:16.760
That way we can see how each one functions on its own.

5
00:16.760 --> 00:19.720
So I thought what we would do is we would start by looking at

6
00:19.720 --> 00:24.410
a completely functional environment which is connected to all three at the same

7
00:24.410 --> 00:25.000
time.

8
00:25.000 --> 00:27.720
So that's what I have set up in running right now.

9
00:27.720 --> 00:32.240
We'll also take this opportunity to look at some more detailed verification
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

9
00:27.720 --> 00:32.240
We'll also take this opportunity to look at some more detailed verification

10
00:32.240 --> 00:33.000
steps

11
00:33.000 --> 00:36.480
that we can use to make sure that all of this is functional.

12
00:36.480 --> 00:38.840
As we go through the upcoming skills,

13
00:38.840 --> 00:43.240
we're not going to look at the detailed verification in each skill.

14
00:43.240 --> 00:47.240
We'll take a look at it here and then you can apply these methods

15
00:47.240 --> 00:51.080
as you're going through each different Cloud provider individually.

16
00:51.080 --> 00:54.680
So let's go ahead and jump in to a working environment

17
00:54.680 --> 00:58.840
connected to all three major Cloud providers.

18
00:58.840 --> 01:04.880
So starting off here on the Monitor Overview page,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

18
00:58.840 --> 01:04.880
So starting off here on the Monitor Overview page,

19
01:04.880 --> 01:09.000
the first thing we want to take a look at of course is that we currently have

20
01:09.000 --> 01:11.800
our one validator, our one controller,

21
01:11.800 --> 01:14.360
and our one manager up and running,

22
01:14.360 --> 01:17.640
and we have our eight WAN edges.

23
01:17.640 --> 01:22.760
That's two that are on-prem and two each for AWS,

24
01:22.760 --> 01:26.600
Microsoft Azure, and of course, Google Cloud.

25
01:26.600 --> 01:29.160
If we look down here a little further,

26
01:29.160 --> 01:31.640
we can see the current site health.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

26
01:29.160 --> 01:31.640
we can see the current site health.

27
01:31.640 --> 01:36.990
And you might notice that we actually have one site here under poor performing

28
01:36.990 --> 01:37.720
sites,

29
01:37.720 --> 01:39.720
which is site 100.

30
01:39.720 --> 01:44.520
Now, the irony of that is site 100 is headquarters,

31
01:44.520 --> 01:49.560
which is actually devices that are running here at my location.

32
01:49.560 --> 01:54.520
It's actually running poorer than the devices out in the Cloud.

33
01:54.520 --> 01:58.040
And of course, if we really think about it, that makes sense.

34
01:58.040 --> 02:04.280
I don't have nearly the resources that AWS, Azure, and GCP have,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

34
01:58.040 --> 02:04.280
I don't have nearly the resources that AWS, Azure, and GCP have,

35
02:04.280 --> 02:08.760
which is also what we'll see here on the tunnel health side.

36
02:08.760 --> 02:14.600
Notice that half my tunnels are good and the other half are poor.

37
02:14.600 --> 02:18.760
Well, if we look at a little more detail here on these good tunnels,

38
02:18.760 --> 02:23.960
notice that they're between like Azure and AWS and so on.

39
02:23.960 --> 02:28.040
And if I switch this over to look at the poor tunnels,

40
02:28.040 --> 02:32.880
these are all the tunnels that are either going to or coming from my on-prem
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

40
02:28.040 --> 02:32.880
these are all the tunnels that are either going to or coming from my on-prem

41
02:32.880 --> 02:34.040
routers.

42
02:34.040 --> 02:37.880
And this, of course, is because the connection here at my location

43
02:37.880 --> 02:43.640
is nowhere near the connections that are available at the Cloud providers,

44
02:43.640 --> 02:46.520
particularly between the other Cloud providers.

45
02:46.520 --> 02:50.620
And we'll see this more when we look at the tunnels in more detail in just a

46
02:50.620 --> 02:51.400
moment.

47
02:51.400 --> 02:55.160
But first, let's go up and take a look at the monitor devices.

48
02:55.160 --> 03:00.680
So if we click up here on devices, what we're going to see here is all of our
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

48
02:55.160 --> 03:00.680
So if we click up here on devices, what we're going to see here is all of our

49
03:00.680 --> 03:01.320
devices.

50
03:01.320 --> 03:04.920
We have two routers deployed in AWS.

51
03:04.920 --> 03:07.400
We have our two on-prem routers.

52
03:07.400 --> 03:10.040
Then of course, we have our three controllers.

53
03:10.040 --> 03:15.480
And if we scroll down a little bit here, we see the two routers in Azure

54
03:15.480 --> 03:18.040
and the two routers in GCP.

55
03:18.040 --> 03:22.120
Now, notice that all of these are up, reachable, and so on.

56
03:22.120 --> 03:27.080
We do have a amber health warning on the two in AWS.

57
03:27.080 --> 03:29.880
This is simply because if we scroll over a little,

58
03:29.880 --> 03:35.560
we see that the memory utilization on those two routers is over 80%.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

58
03:29.880 --> 03:35.560
we see that the memory utilization on those two routers is over 80%.

59
03:35.560 --> 03:39.160
That's the threshold to go to amber.

60
03:39.160 --> 03:43.960
And this is simply because I chose the smallest supported routers

61
03:43.960 --> 03:48.200
that Cisco will deploy using Cloud On-Ramp into AWS.

62
03:48.200 --> 03:52.620
Of course, in a production environment, I wouldn't have used the smaller of the

63
03:52.620 --> 03:53.240
routers,

64
03:53.240 --> 03:56.280
but they are getting close on their memory utilization.

65
03:56.280 --> 04:00.600
So now let's scroll back up and now we'll go to tunnels.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

65
03:56.280 --> 04:00.600
So now let's scroll back up and now we'll go to tunnels.

66
04:00.600 --> 04:04.120
Now, if we scroll down here so we can see more of these on the screen,

67
04:04.120 --> 04:09.080
notice that the health of all of these is a red X.

68
04:09.080 --> 04:13.240
Well, if we click on the health up here, the little I for information,

69
04:13.960 --> 04:19.690
we'll see that the health on these are poor because the quality of experience

70
04:19.690 --> 04:21.400
is less than five.

71
04:21.400 --> 04:27.510
If we look at the QOE column, we can see that all of these are in fact below

72
04:27.510 --> 04:28.200
five,

73
04:28.200 --> 04:33.080
and we can see why if we look over here, look at this average latency.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

73
04:28.200 --> 04:33.080
and we can see why if we look over here, look at this average latency.

74
04:33.080 --> 04:39.740
It's up around 400 milliseconds and the average jitter is right around 100

75
04:39.740 --> 04:41.160
milliseconds.

76
04:41.880 --> 04:47.240
Now, truth be told here, my internet connection at this location is not that

77
04:47.240 --> 04:47.560
bad.

78
04:47.560 --> 04:49.480
I have a good internet connection.

79
04:49.480 --> 04:54.840
I'm really not sure why this latency and jitter is so high.

80
04:54.840 --> 04:57.640
I've done a little bit of troubleshooting to try to figure it out,

81
04:57.640 --> 05:00.520
not a lot because everything is functional.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

81
04:57.640 --> 05:00.520
not a lot because everything is functional.

82
05:00.520 --> 05:03.800
It just doesn't look nice that our health isn't very good.

83
05:03.800 --> 05:07.480
But of course, it doesn't really matter for this example.

84
05:07.480 --> 05:10.520
Of course, if you have business quality internet,

85
05:10.520 --> 05:12.760
you probably won't have this problem.

86
05:12.760 --> 05:14.760
This is just my home internet connection.

87
05:14.760 --> 05:18.680
So again, even though all of their health is poor,

88
05:18.680 --> 05:23.000
they are still functional, up and working, which is really all we need.

89
05:23.000 --> 05:27.960
So next, let's scroll up and let's take a look at multicloud.

90
05:27.960 --> 05:32.600
So here are the big things we want to look at on the multicloud page.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

90
05:27.960 --> 05:32.600
So here are the big things we want to look at on the multicloud page.

91
05:32.600 --> 05:38.520
First for AWS, we see that we have our cloud gateway is currently up.

92
05:38.520 --> 05:41.320
We have our two cloud edges that are currently up.

93
05:41.320 --> 05:44.520
And we have three connected sites.

94
05:44.520 --> 05:51.160
That involves four tunnels, one connected tag, one connected host VPC,

95
05:51.160 --> 05:56.120
which is where our server is living, and one connected VPC connection.

96
05:56.120 --> 05:59.960
For Google platform, notice that this is very similar.

97
05:59.960 --> 06:05.080
What changes a bit here though, is that it uses fewer tunnels,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

97
05:59.960 --> 06:05.080
What changes a bit here though, is that it uses fewer tunnels,

98
06:05.080 --> 06:10.280
because it actually uses parallel cloud edges rather than sort of a mesh.

99
06:10.280 --> 06:13.400
So that means we have half as many tunnels,

100
06:13.400 --> 06:18.280
but we still have the connected tags and the connected host VPCs

101
06:18.280 --> 06:20.280
and connected VPC connections.

102
06:20.280 --> 06:25.640
Microsoft Azure, of course, also lists this just a little bit different.

103
06:25.640 --> 06:27.800
Of course, our cloud gateways is the same.

104
06:27.800 --> 06:29.480
Our cloud edge is the same.

105
06:29.480 --> 06:32.040
The connected sites is also the same.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

105
06:29.480 --> 06:32.040
The connected sites is also the same.

106
06:32.520 --> 06:37.160
But then it talks about your connected tags, your connected host VNats,

107
06:37.160 --> 06:39.880
and your connected VPN connections.

108
06:39.880 --> 06:43.080
So it's a little bit different here, how it words it.

109
06:43.080 --> 06:46.840
We of course just call them VNats instead of VPCs,

110
06:46.840 --> 06:49.400
and it doesn't list the number of tunnels here.

111
06:49.400 --> 06:54.120
But overall, we have three green lines under each one,

112
06:54.120 --> 06:58.120
indicating that everything is currently up, working, and healthy.

113
06:58.120 --> 07:01.320
You can also sort of get a look at what's going on as well,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

113
06:58.120 --> 07:01.320
You can also sort of get a look at what's going on as well,

114
07:01.880 --> 07:05.000
not under monitor, but also under configuration.

115
07:05.000 --> 07:08.280
So if we come back over here to configuration,

116
07:08.280 --> 07:11.080
and we go to cloud on ramp for multi cloud,

117
07:11.080 --> 07:15.400
we'll collapse our side menu also to give us a little more space here

118
07:15.400 --> 07:16.440
to see what's going on.

119
07:16.440 --> 07:21.880
But we see here sort of a summary under this network snapshot section,

120
07:21.880 --> 07:25.640
where it's giving us the same sort of information we just saw, of course.

121
07:25.640 --> 07:27.960
But we can see it on this page as well,

122
07:27.960 --> 07:31.560
that we have connections for AWS, for Azure,
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

122
07:27.960 --> 07:31.560
that we have connections for AWS, for Azure,

123
07:31.880 --> 07:33.960
and also for Google Cloud.

124
07:33.960 --> 07:39.070
Down here at the bottom, it also gives us a nice summary of the different

125
07:39.070 --> 07:39.800
clouds,

126
07:39.800 --> 07:43.160
the regions, what account it's connected with,

127
07:43.160 --> 07:45.240
the different cloud gateway names,

128
07:45.240 --> 07:51.960
their current health devices, and the tunnel to cloud when core networks.

129
07:51.960 --> 07:58.390
We also see how many VPNs, tags, and host private networks are available on

130
07:58.390 --> 07:59.480
each one.

131
07:59.480 --> 08:05.560
I simply have one network behind each of these in each cloud environment.
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

131
07:59.480 --> 08:05.560
I simply have one network behind each of these in each cloud environment.

132
08:05.560 --> 08:09.880
We'll be verifying that part from the command line in the next video.

133
08:09.880 --> 08:16.680
So in this video, our goal was to come in here to the graphical interface,

134
08:16.680 --> 08:20.520
specifically SD-WAN manager or V-Manage,

135
08:20.520 --> 08:25.880
and use this tool to verify that all of our connections to the various cloud

136
08:25.880 --> 08:27.000
providers

137
08:27.000 --> 08:31.480
are up and functional. And even though our tunnels aren't exactly showing the
WEBVTT
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

137
08:27.000 --> 08:31.480
are up and functional. And even though our tunnels aren't exactly showing the

138
08:31.480 --> 08:32.440
most healthy,

139
08:32.440 --> 08:37.480
in fact, we have poor health, they are in fact up and they are in fact working,

140
08:37.480 --> 08:41.240
which at least for a lab environment is all we really need.

141
08:41.240 --> 08:45.250
Now, of course, for production, we might want to have a little bit of a better

142
08:45.250 --> 08:46.440
internet connection

143
08:46.440 --> 08:48.600
for this to function a little bit better.

144
08:48.600 --> 08:53.720
Next, let's jump into the command line and do some verification there

145
08:53.720 --> 08:57.480
to make sure that everything's working from the command line perspective.
