Hopefully you were able to log into your lab environment and make those
configurations.
By the end of this skill, we should be very comfortable with configuring things
at the
CLI, which allows us to get onto a device just like we're used to in the Cisco
world,
where we can do config T's, although it's config -t.
And then we just need to know a little bit more about how to perform our
configurations
and remember to do a commit at the end.
But otherwise, we for the most part are very comfortable with performing CLI
configurations
if you're in the Cisco space.
Then it's about learning that UI, the graphical user interface that V Manager
Manager provides
to us.
And so we want to make sure we understand how feature templates work.
We saw an example of not only creating a pair of the VPN Ethernet feature
templates,
but also a AAA feature template and then how those feature templates get
applied to a
device template and then that device template gets applied to a device and
pushes configuration
down.
And so we want to be comfortable with both of those types of configurations,
both CLI
and graphical user interface before we move on.
Now if you took the time to verify your tunnel configuration, I just want to
drop a quick
note about that.
Might notice that we did end this skill with a mission accomplished like, hey,
we've got
all of these data plane tunnels online.
In fact, if you look at the tunnels that we created, whether in the UI or at
the CLI,
you're going to find that we don't actually have any tunnels yet on MPLS.
And we do still have that tunnel that's on edge 13, the one that has a
connection to
the internet and MPLS.
We're not supposed to be forming data plane tunnels out that internet circuit
and yet
we are if we look at what's happening there.
And so we're going to want to clean things up a little bit by not only taking
care of
that, but also making sure that we can form data plane connections out MPLS.
There is a little bit of intentionality that we put into this configuration to
make it
so that we do not initially form the connection so we can see why that's
happening and then
also turn around and make sure that we know how to fix it.
And this will help us out both in lab environments, but also especially real
world applications
where we might have two different WAN circuits and depending on how our under
lay is configured,
we might actually see this in the real world as well.
It's very common, especially if we're using cloud controllers, which is very
common in
today's environment.
So for now, just focus on making sure we're comfortable with performing
configurations
and then moving forward, we are going to get in there, clean up the tunnel
configuration,
get our edge devices forming tunnels across both circuits, and at that point we
can feel
like we've got our environment ready to go.
I hope this has been informative for you and I'd like to thank you for viewing.
