In this validation section, I'd like to propose a slightly new topology and the
customer who has a question about traffic flow in their network.
So starting off here is our topology. We have VM1 and VM2 both running on host
A, VM3 and VM4 both running on host B.
And these VMs are connected to the NSX overlays, segment 10 and 20 as shown.
We also have external connectivity through our tier zero gateway to a network
segment.
And we're using 23.1.2 out here and our external router interface is reachable WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
And we're using 23.1.2 out here and our external router interface is reachable
at .1.
And so for the scenario, our customer would like to know about the packet flow
from VM2, that's going to 23.1.2.1, which is up here.
So as traffic flow to right there. So they would like to know about that packet
flow.
Additionally, they want to know which transport nodes are involved on the data
plane for the forwarding of that traffic.
So based on this topology and that question from the customer, what can you
tell the customer about the packet flow and the devices involved on the data WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
tell the customer about the packet flow and the devices involved on the data
plane?
So what I invite you to do right now is to go ahead and pause right here.
Don't continue yet to the next video and give this some thought regarding the
questions from the customer, including what is the logical flow of traffic from
this VM to get to that IP address,
as well as what are the transport nodes involved in the forwarding of that
traffic.
Also in this topology to make it a little bit simpler, I also included only a
single edge note.
So the only edge note that we have in place is edge one with the tunnel WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
So the only edge note that we have in place is edge one with the tunnel
endpoint of 3333, 33, etc.
And for host A is tunnel endpoint is all 11s and host B is tunnel endpoint is
all 22s.
So feel free to take as much time as you want right now.
Consider the traffic flow and what you could tell the customer about their
questions regarding that traffic flow.
And then when you are ready, join me in the next video and we'll walk through
this and compare notes regarding the traffic flow and also the transport nodes
involved.
