How to configure Contrail/TungstenFabric to control EVPN/VXLAN on QFX51x0

Contrail/TungstenFabric has supported EVPN/VXLAN since 4.1.
**OVSDB/VXLAN had been deprecated on 5.0 due to scaling and stability issue.

Automated configuration for EVPN/VXLAN is only supported Juniper QFX51x0 series on 5.0.
**5.1 will support multi vender configuration.

How to Configure

in this article, Juniper QFX5100 is used.

1. Register Leaf Switch

Configure > Physical Devices > Physical Routers
Select "Netconf Managed Physical Router" from "+".
Name: Host name of Leaf Switch (HVTEP)
Vender: Juniper
Model: qfx5100
Management IP: IP address of Netconf/SSH connection.
Netconf Username: User name to accept configuration by Netconf.
Netconf Password: User password to accept configuration by Netconf.
Role: Leaf
EVPN Peered TOR: Enable check
JUNOS Service Port: Listen port of Netconf on Leaf Switch

2. Configure BGP Router

Configure > Infrastructure > BGP Routers
Router Type: BGP Router
Name: Hostname of Leaf Switch (HVTEP)
Vender ID: Juniper
IP Address: Source IP address of BGP as same as Loopback.
Router ID: Router ID of BGP. Same as IP Address
Autonomous System: AS number of Leaf Switch
BGP Router ASN: AS number which is used BGP connection of BGP Peer by Leaf Switch. Same as Autonomous System.
Address Families: Configure only inet-vpn, route-target, e-vpn
Advanced Options > Physical Router: Select Leaf Switch which is configured at "Physical Device"
Assosiate Peer(s) > Peer: Select Control node

3. Configure VTEP

Configure > Physical Devices > Physical Routers
Configure VTEP information on configured Physical Router. Click right side "Gear" icon.
VTEP Address: Configure Loopback IP address
Loopback IP: Configure Loopback IP address


4. Confirm Leaf Switch

Configuration is seen under "group __contrail__" which is configured by Contrail/TungstenFabric.
"show configuration groups __contrail__" shows loopback, BGP configuration and so on.

}
policy-options {
    community _contrail_switch_policy_ members target:64519:1;
}
switch-options {
    vtep-source-interface lo0.0;
}

5. Configure Virtual network on Leaf Switch

Configure > Physical Devices > Interfaces > {Leaf Swtich}
Name: Configure Interface. Set Physical interface with sub-interface like "xe-0/0/1.0".
Logical Interface Properties > Logical Interface Type: Server
Logical Interface Properties > VLAN ID: Configure VLAN nmber. In case of Untag, set "0"
Logical Interface Properties > Virtual Network: Select Virtual network
Logical Interface Properties > Server MAC: Configure MAC address to asign IP address to Bare metal server by DHCP. Dummy MAC address is acceptable.
** TSN is required to assign IP address by DHCP.
Logical Interface Properties > IP address: IP address of DHCP. Blank is acceptable.

6. Confirm Leaf Switch

After configuration, interface is automatically configured. Necessary configuration is also configured.
