00:00.000 --> 00:05.360
In this validation section, I'd like to propose a slightly new topology and the

2
00:05.360 --> 00:09.000
customer who has a question about traffic flow in their network.

3
00:09.000 --> 00:14.080
So starting off here is our topology. We have VM1 and VM2 both running on host

4
00:14.080 --> 00:18.000
A, VM3 and VM4 both running on host B.

5
00:18.000 --> 00:22.000
And these VMs are connected to the NSX overlays, segment 10 and 20 as shown.

6
00:22.000 --> 00:26.430
We also have external connectivity through our tier zero gateway to a network

7
00:26.430 --> 00:27.000
segment.

8
00:27.000 --> 00:32.290
And we're using 23.1.2 out here and our external router interface is reachable

8
00:27.000 --> 00:32.290
And we're using 23.1.2 out here and our external router interface is reachable

9
00:32.290 --> 00:33.000
at .1.

10
00:33.000 --> 00:37.320
And so for the scenario, our customer would like to know about the packet flow

11
00:37.320 --> 00:43.000
from VM2, that's going to 23.1.2.1, which is up here.

12
00:43.000 --> 00:47.630
So as traffic flow to right there. So they would like to know about that packet

13
00:47.630 --> 00:48.000
flow.

14
00:48.000 --> 00:51.630
Additionally, they want to know which transport nodes are involved on the data

15
00:51.630 --> 00:54.000
plane for the forwarding of that traffic.

16
00:54.000 --> 00:58.440
So based on this topology and that question from the customer, what can you

17
00:58.440 --> 01:02.330
tell the customer about the packet flow and the devices involved on the data

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

17
00:58.440 --> 01:02.330
tell the customer about the packet flow and the devices involved on the data

18
01:02.330 --> 01:03.000
plane?

19
01:03.000 --> 01:06.000
So what I invite you to do right now is to go ahead and pause right here.

20
01:06.000 --> 01:10.210
Don't continue yet to the next video and give this some thought regarding the

21
01:10.210 --> 01:14.390
questions from the customer, including what is the logical flow of traffic from

22
01:14.390 --> 01:17.000
this VM to get to that IP address,

23
01:17.000 --> 01:20.390
as well as what are the transport nodes involved in the forwarding of that

24
01:20.390 --> 01:21.000
traffic.

25
01:21.000 --> 01:25.660
Also in this topology to make it a little bit simpler, I also included only a

26
01:25.660 --> 01:27.000
single edge note.

27
01:27.000 --> 01:31.170
So the only edge note that we have in place is edge one with the tunnel

X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000

27
01:27.000 --> 01:31.170
So the only edge note that we have in place is edge one with the tunnel

28
01:31.170 --> 01:34.000
endpoint of 3333, 33, etc.

29
01:34.000 --> 01:39.690
And for host A is tunnel endpoint is all 11s and host B is tunnel endpoint is

30
01:39.690 --> 01:41.000
all 22s.

31
01:41.000 --> 01:44.000
So feel free to take as much time as you want right now.

32
01:44.000 --> 01:47.730
Consider the traffic flow and what you could tell the customer about their

33
01:47.730 --> 01:50.000
questions regarding that traffic flow.

34
01:50.000 --> 01:53.810
And then when you are ready, join me in the next video and we'll walk through

35
01:53.810 --> 01:58.350
this and compare notes regarding the traffic flow and also the transport nodes

36
01:58.350 --> 01:59.000
involved.
