Both new server middleware usages, which offer clustering for high availability or flexibility for servers’ virtual organization (VMotion), and more traditional requirements for physical server migration increasingly require a capability to extend VLANs (Layer 2 bridging, L2) across data center sites.
This chapter examines two deployments that implement DCI using Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) technology. One deployment is a large government organization (GOV) that provides internal networking and data center solutions. The other is ...
