L2VPN/L2transport, Cumulus Linux & hardware suggestion

[Jürgen Jaritsch <juergen () jaritsch at>]

Dear folks,

have anyone already tried to run VXLAN/EVPN + “Bridge Layer 2 Protocol
Tunneling” on Cumulus Linux as an replacement for classic MPLS L2VPN/VPWS
(“xconnect”, l2circuit, VLL) ?

I need to provide transparent Ethernet P2P virtual leased lines to my
customers and these have to support stuff like LLDP, STP, LACP, etc. The
transport L2 network is not THAT big: max hops between VTEP is 4.

Anyone have suggestions for the below hardware request?
#) 1-3U L2/L3 box
#) 48x SFP28 / 1/10/25G
#) 6x QSFP28 / 100G
#) VXLAN/EVPN with L2 tunneling support
or
#) MPLS VPWS/l2circuit
#) Dual PSU


thanks & best regards
Jürgen
