Here you can find all the Software Defined Networking related blogs and discussions, also SD-WAN or SDN related labs.
Even though we have virtual Nuage NSG, let’s think for a second that we have got a brand new NSG’s at our branch locations and we are going to deploy them as Branch 1 and two like below. 🙂 Creation of NSG in an Enterprise. Different methods of bootstrapping Nuage NSG. What is Auto-bootstrapping NSG …
What is the underlay and Overlay network? When it comes to Nuage-SDWAN there are two types of networks that we have to use. First one is called the underlay network and the second one is called the overlay network. The underlay network is nothing but our traditional network which would help us to connect all …
In my previous blog, I covered the underlay network setup for Nuage in KVM. In this blog, I am going to cover the Nuage VSD installation lab guide and on the next part of the blog, we would go through the installation of the nuage components one by one. What is Nuage VSD (Virtual Service …
In our last section of the Nuage sdwan lab setup, we had installed VSD, which is the nuage networks VNS management plane. In this section of the lab guide, we would go ahead and install a SD-WAN controller known as VSC (Virtual Service Controller.) Wha is Nuage VSC ? VSC is the Nuage SDN’s controller, which …
How you install the traditional network devices?A skilled technician would go on to the site to deploy the router and connect cables on them and make sure everything is working.But how to implement SD-WAN gateway? You cannot install SD-WAN gateway in our case NSG (Network Service Gateway) just like that. You would have to do …
Yes, we are almost there to get everything up and run.! I am building this lab for you guys and at the same time, writing this post, that way I hope everything would be accurate. In this lab, we are going to install the Nuage proxy server, also known as nuage utility VM, so let’s …
You are here because you wanted to learn about Nuage SD-WAN and its lab setup. For me, I don’t like to read more of theory when it comes to learning new technologies. I would instead do a lab first and make some mistakes and learn from them. By the time I finish the lab, I …
I have covered what is VXLAN and the differences between the overlay and underlay network here, in this blog we are going to take a look at the overlay and underlay in action using nuage sd-wan lab. The underlay network topology. Below is the actual underlay network, The Branch 1 NSG is connected to two …
