Overview
Design, Operate, and Scale Advanced EVPN VXLAN Fabrics
Modern data centers are transforming rapidly--driven by AI workloads, cloud-native applications, and increasingly diverse multi-vendor environments. Mastering Advanced Juniper Data Centers is the handson guide for experienced network professionals who need to design, deploy, and scale EVPN VXLAN fabrics built for today's most demanding infrastructures.
This book goes beyond theory. Through clear explanations, packetlevel walkthroughs, and real-world architectural insights, you'll learn how nextgeneration data centers actually work in production. You'll explore advanced topics including multi-tenant data center fabrics and service-chaining, multicast, multivendor EVPN interoperability, Day2 operations with Juniper Apstra, and network infrastructure observability with streaming telemetry using gNMI.
Standout features of this book are its dedicated focus on EVPN interoperability across Cisco, Arista and Juniper network operating systems and advanced multicast designs--topics rarely addressed in traditional networking literature. Whether you're building new infrastructure or optimizing complex fabrics, you'll gain the expertise to deliver scalable, resilient, data center networks.
What You'll Learn:
Design and deploy multi-tenant EVPN VXLAN fabrics with service-chaining
Implement multicast in modern EVPN VXLAN networks
Understand packet flows through handson captures and walkthroughs
Build and troubleshoot multivendor EVPN fabrics (Juniper, Cisco, Arista)
