Sessions
Work days of network operators can become difficult - especially the moment when you have to involve another party like the vendor of your network equipment. In this workshop
we will not only give you the view from a TAC engineer working on your cases, but also examples on how a TAC actually works and what will be needed to make it a pleasent experience for both sides.
Together we will have a look at some real world examples of Do's and Don't when it comes engaging with TAC.
From 0 to a full blown EVPN/VXLAN leaf-spine datacenter deployment in <2h? Sounds like a fairy tale.
In this workshop Patrick will show you interactively (participants get there own enviornment) how to define and configure a datacenter design in YAML and Ansible based on the Arista Validated Deisgn. It includes a set of ansible roles and modules to help kick-start your automation.
This presentation will demonstrate on how to leverage open standards like OpenConfig to provision BGP sessions in a vendor-agnostic approach. In addition the speaker will use the well-known PeeringDB API to obtain the peers information and present it in an OpenConfig-compatible format.
