VyOS Virtual Clos Topology Deployment Templates

Synopsis

Provide a base configuration to "jump-start" a basic Clos topology composed of Vyos VMs

Topology Diagram

This Will

• Set up interface eth0 as a DHCP client
• Set up VRF mgmt to keep eth0 separate. This will allow consumers to keep an easy, automatically bootstrapped out-of-band point of administration.
• Set up SSH/API for remote administration once it's on-line
• Configure a "fat tree" of routers to connect to each other via eBGP

To use these examples

• Perform a new VyOS installation: https://docs.vyos.io/en/latest/install.html
• Install the provided configuration into that virtual router
• Update VyOS (if applicable), and load any custom software.
• Package into OVA or VM Template
• Deploy configurations

From there, it's possible to perform get and post invocations.

Tested Platforms

• VyOS Rolling

Notes

• Set your own password - that is not included in this configuration.
• This doesn't set up any virtual topologies yet, or deploy images for you.
