Scenario

You will need to deliver the requirements listed below

• Create a public github repository and by using branches develop the following task entries/features
• Create a README.MD file with your details and some explanation about this lab
• Push

Using ansible playbooks:

• branch clos: Define a bgp/evpn clos topology

  you are free to chose between unnumbered/static addressing

• branch mlag: Define MLAG/ESI.

  you are free to chose static or dynamic configuration and opting between ESI/MLAG

• branch vlan: Define a vlan

• branch userports: set ethernet1 ports as access members of defined vlan

• branch telemetry: set monitoring details, credentials, descriptions

Monitoring:

• Create a monitoring solution for this structure on jump server. Snmp is good, other solutions are preferred.

Golden tickets:

1. vcs machines should be able to ping each other on same vlan between racks.
2. A monitoring solution, it must update the operator about thresolds and outages. These updates must happen less than a minute when any sensor triggers.
3. A solution brief, one pager.
