This five-day course is designed to provide in-depth instruction on IP fabric and Ethernet VPN–Virtual Extensible LAN (EVPN–VXLAN) data center design and configuration. Additionally, the course will cover other data center concepts, including basic and advanced data center design optionsincluding collapsed spine and super spine architectures, Data Center Interconnect (DCI), EVPN multicast enhancements, and seamless EVPN–VXLAN stitching. Through demonstrations and hands-on labs, students will gain experience with these features. This content is based on vQFXs running Junos OS Release 21.R1.9.
