Chapter 15
Large-Scale Fabrics, Inter-VRF Routing, and Security Policies in Apstra
This chapter explores the deployment of 5-stage Clos fabrics, managed and orchestrated by Apstra, demonstrating how large-scale data centers can be built, using the vJunos and Containerlab knowledge acquired from the previous chapter to create a virtual network infrastructure.
Inter-VRF routing is a crucial design aspect of data centers, often centralized on a firewall (or pair of firewalls) connected to data center leafs. This chapter demonstrates the design options for inter-VRF routing in Apstra and takes a deep dive at how it is implemented, while also exploring security policies in Apstra, offering a vendor-agnostic single source of policy control.
