Cisco Nexus vPC Benefits and Deployment Scenarios

Benefits of vPC

vPC is a virtualization technology that presents both Cisco Nexus 7000 Series paired devices as a unique Layer 2 logical node to access layer devices or endpoints. vPC belongs to Multichassis EtherChannel [MCEC] family of technology.

​A virtual port channel (vPC) allows links that are physically connected to two different Cisco Nexus 7000 Series devices to appear as a single port channel to a third device. The third device can be a switch, server, or any other networking device that supports link aggregation technology.
 ​
vPC provides the following technical benefits:



● Eliminates Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) blocked ports
● Uses all available uplink bandwidth
● Allows dual-homed servers to operate in active-active mode
● Provides fast convergence upon link or device failure
● Offers dual active/active default gateways for servers

By using vPC, users get the immediate operational and architectural advantages:
● Simplifies network design
● Build highly resilient and robust Layer 2 network
● Enables seamless virtual machine mobility and server high-availability clusters
● Scales available Layer 2 bandwidth, increasing bisectional bandwith
● Grows the size of the Layer 2 network

Components of vPC

NX-OS Version Requirement for vPC

 vPC technology is supported since NX-OS 4.1.3. (i.e since the inception of NEXUS 7000 
platform).
 NX-OS appropriate version depends on line cards configuration (M1, F1 or F2), chassis 
type (7010, 7018 or 7009) and Fabric Module generation (FM generation 1 [46Gbps per 
module] or generation 2 [110Gbps per module]).

NX-OS License Requirement for vPC
​ vPC feature is included in the base NX-OS software license.
​ ​Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP), Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Link 
Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) are also included in this base license.

The 2 common deployment scenarios using vPC technology are listed as below:
​● Inside Data Center:
​◦ Single-sided vPC (access layer or aggregation layer)
​◦ Double-sided vPC, also called multilayer vPC (access layer using vPC interconnected to aggregation layer using vPC)
● Across Data Center i.e vPC for Data Center Interconnect (DCI):
◦ Multilayer vPC for Aggregation and DCI
◦ Dual Layer 2 /Layer 3 Pod Interconnect

Single-Sided vPC



In single-sided vPC, access devices are directly dual-attached to pair of Cisco Nexus 7000 Series 
Switches forming the vPC domain.

The access device can be any endpoint equipement (L2 switch, rack-mount server, blade server, 
firewall, load balancer, network attached storage [NAS] device). Only prerequisite for the access 
​device is to support port-channeling (or link aggregation) technology:
● LACP mode active
● LACP mode passive
​● Static bundling (mode ON)

Beginning with Cisco NX-OS Software Release 4.1(3)N1(1a), the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series is capable of supporting 16 active member ports per port-channel. Cisco Nexus 5000 Series to a vPC domain gives a compelling topology where vPC can be sized up to 160 Gbps (16 x 10-Gbps ports).

Double-Sided vPC
This topology superposes two layers of vPC domain and the bundle 
between vPC domain 1 and vPC domain 2 is by itself a vPC.

​vPC domain at the bottom is used for active/active connectivity from enpoint devices 
to network access layer.

​vPC domain at the top is used for active/active FHRP in the L2/L3 boundary 
​aggregation layer.

Benefits of double-sided vPC over single-sided vPC topology are listed below:
​● Enables a larger Layer 2 domain.
​● Provides a higher resilient architecture. In double-sided vPC, two access switches 
are connected to two aggregation switches whereas in single-sided vPC, one access switch 
is connected to two aggregation switches.
​● Provides more bandwidth from the access to aggregation layer. Using a Cisco Nexus F1 or F2 Series modules line card for vPC and Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches with Release 4.1(3)N1(1a) or later, a vPC with 32 active member ports (that is, 320 Gbps) can be instantiated.

Multilayer vPC for Aggregation and DCI

​

vPC provides capabilities to build a loop-free topology, and as such it makes the technology a good fit for Data Center Interconnect (DCI) deployments. In this scenario, a dedicated layer of vPC domain (adjacent to aggregation layer which also runs vPC) is used to interconnect the 2 data centers together.​

IT Service Continuity (Disaster Recovery Plan)

1. Identify hosting Site which needs to be available Active/ Standby in both of the DataCenters.
2. Understand and Identity replication method between the sites.
3. DNS failover multiple options : 
load balancer GSLB
dynamic DNS : publically available 


http://dyn.com/dns/ or http://www.dnsdynamic.org/
​register domain name, then under domain name configure both the sides.

what we did in our organisation was register companies domain name to dyndns and ask clients to do cname. You need to configure two public IPs which dyndns will track processes.

Let me explain Vmware replication, Vmware site recovery Manager and later what is Dynamic DNS and how to setup.

VMware vSphere Replication 5.5

vSphere Replication is a feature of the VMware vSphere platform. It copies a 
virtual machine to another location, within or between clusters, and makes that
copy available for restoration through the VMware vSphere Web Client or through 
the orchestration of a full disaster recovery product such as VMware vCenter Site 
​Recovery Manager. 

How does it work?

vSphere Replication is a deeply integrated component of the vSphere platform. 
​It is the only true “hypervisor-level” replication engine available today.

Changed blocks in the virtual machine disk(s) for a running virtual machine are 
sent to a secondary location, where they are received by a virtual appliance that 
writes them to an on-disk redo log. Only when that redo log is complete and all 
blocks in a given replication are received is that set of data applied to the virtual 
machine disks for the offline (protection) copy of the virtual machine.

​Configuring replication for as many as 500 virtual machines through the same management interface that is used for all VMware vCenter operations is an easy process of right-clicking a virtual machine and selecting the destination for its replica.

vSphere Replication performs an initial, full synchronization of the source virtual machine and its replica copy. 

After baseline synchronization is complete, vSphere Replication switches to transferring only the blocks of data that have changed. This ensures that a minimal amount of data is sent over the network to the target, and it enables aggressive RPOs. After unique data has been sent, there is no need that it be sent again. Only changes are replicated, and those blocks are sent to the target location’s vSphere Replication Appliance.

​

There are lot more interesting topics under Vmware Replication;

*​Simplicity Without Sacrificing Functionality

*Protected site replicating to Target Site 1 and Target Site 2.

*Replication between multiple Remote Sites managed by Different Vcenter

  server system instances.

*Recovering a Virtual Machine.

*Retention of Multiple Points in Time.

We cover all these topics with Live examples during our Vmware and Datacenter Classes.

Now Lets Discuss "VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager - Automated Disaster Recovery Orchestration"

What Is vCenter Site Recovery Manager?

vCenter Site Recovery Manager is the industry-leading disaster recovery (DR) management solution. Site Recovery Manager provides automated orchestration and non-disruptive testing of centralized recovery plans for all virtualized applications.

Site Recovery Manager can integrate natively with vSphere Replication.

How Does It Work?
VMware vCenter Server™. Site Recovery Manager instances 
deployed at both production and recovery sites integrate directly 
with local vCenter Server instances.
​Replication. Site Recovery Manager requires an underlying replication
technology to copy ​virtual machine (VM) data to the recovery site.

*vSphere replication

*Array-based replication

Key Benefits

​*Lower Cost for DR

*Hardware and APP independence

*Simplified setup

*Centralized recovery plan

*Non-Disruptive testing

*Automated disaster recovery Failover

*Automated Failback

There are lot more new features and technologies incorporated in VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager 5.0 which we will cover in our Trainings and test all of them in our LAB setup. 

Lets Discuss Dynamic DNS now..

The main differences between regular DNS and dynamic DNS are:
1)How often an IP address is updated
2)How the IP is updated
3)And the speed at which the new address is communicated to the rest of 
the internet.

Dynamic DNS updates a DNS server with new or changed records for IP addresses
without the need for human intervention. This allows a fully qualified domain name
(FQDN) that never changes to be associated with a dynamically assigned IP address 
​that can change quite often.

Static DNS:

​When a computer is connected to the internet with a static IP address, setting up the DNS for the domain is a relatively simple matter of adding an A record to the domain name's zone file.
​A zone file is just a special text file describing everything about a domain name, where to send email for the domain, and where the website is located for example.
​The A record is that section of a zone file that specifies the name and the IP address where the appropriate server is located. 

Here is an example of an A record:
www.example.com.   IN A  192.168.1.2 

​Zone files are stored on a computer called a nameserver. A nameserver is a computer that is designated to answer all questions from other computers about specific domain names.

CEH "All you need to know"

CEH or LTP ?
In order to become an LTP (Licensed Penetration Tester), you first need to be ECSA certified and 
I believe CEH is a prerequisite for the ECSA.Ecsa is easier than CEH because it does not cover a wide 
​variety of topics as in CEH. Its more focused on pentesting and analysis. 

The combo course of CEH Version 7 and ECSA fulfills the prerequisites of a Licensed Penetration Tester.
​To obtain LPT a candidate must:Achieve the Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Version 7 Certification.Achieve the EC-Council Certified Security Analyst (ECSA) certification.Fill up and submit the LPT Application form along with required documents and payment ($500) to EC-Council directly.

Value of CEH ?
CEH will be in demand in the future. The world is becoming more and more dependant on the internet, So good protection agains attacks is priority one. 
CEH alone may not help you immediately, But in future it should help you, However if you need career growth, go for CISSP after CEH.This gives you a definate boost in your career. CISSP is the KING !!!

Differences CEHv7 vs CEHv8?
CEH v8 is a highly prominent credential which is internationally recognized by NSA, CNSS and ANSI/ISO/IEC 17024 standard.
*  DoD (Department of Defense) approved - under 'Directive 8570' and CND (Computer Network Defense) category
*  CEH v8 specifically includes support for securing mobile platforms by inclusion of a dedicated mobile hacking module
​*  Includes iLabs - a cloud-based lab environment for BackTrack, Windows Server 2012, Windows 7/8 

Download Certified Ethical Hacker Version 8
​http://auditor-it.blogspot.com/2014/02/download-certified-ethical-hacker.html

Best CEH Materials ?
The Official CEH guide should be sufficient to clear the exam. 
Please contact out Helpdesk for best collection of course material and Training on CEH (helpdek@itechglide.com, contact:+91-9643459703 )

How many questions about hacking tools are in CEH exam?
Some of the tools that are usually tested are Netcat, Cryptcat, Firewalk, John the Ripper, SID2User, lots of stuff on Nmap, Etercap, Hping2, Tcpdump.
​What you'll come across alot are logs of firewalls and results of the mentioned tools and you'll be expected to know what they mean. E.g what kind of attacks took place, dos, buffer overflow etc.

Is CEH trainning required?
Self Study Options:
If you have opted for self-study and not attended training, you must have at least two years of information security related experience.
Please fill the Exam Eligibility Form. Upon approval, EC-Council will send you an eligibility voucher number which you can use to register and schedule the test at any Authorized Prometric Testing Center globally.

Supervisor and Fabric Modules

Cisco Nexus 7000 Supervisor Module Connectivity and Indicators

High-performance dual-core Intel Xeon processor 

Two supervisor modules operate in active and standby modes with stateful supervisor failover to enhance total system availability. Cisco NX-OS Software Release 4.0 or later (minimum)

Part Number : N7K-SUP1

 Cisco Nexus 7000 10-Slot Fabric Module

The Cisco Nexus 7000 Fabric Modules (Figures 1 and 2) for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Chassis are separate fabric modules that provide parallel fabric channels to each I/O and supervisor module slot. Up to five simultaneously active fabric modules work together delivering up to 230 Gbps per slot.

Performance : 46 Gbps per Fabric slot

Product Name: N7K-C7010-FAB-1

Similar to Above Fabric Module but Up to five simultaneously active fabric modules work together delivering up to 550 Gbps per slot.

Performance : 110 Gbps per Fabric slot

Product Name: N7K-C7009-FAB-2

Fab2 Performance capacity

How to calculate Switch performance with Fabric Module

Example: 

As per Cisco Data Sheet The Cisco Nexus 7000 18-Slot chassis delivers 18.7 Tbps or 2.33 TBps. 

Lets Calculate how;

18 Slots - 2 SUP slots = 16

Fab2 per slot = 110 Gbps, it containts 5 Fabric slots, 5x110 = 550 Gbps

16 Slots x 5 Fabric slots = 16x550 = 8800Gbps

8800 Gbps x 2 (ingress+egress) = 17600 aprox 18 Tbps.

I/O Modules

M1 and M2 Series Line Card

F1, F2 and F3 Series Line Card

The main difference is that the M1 cards will do major and all Layer 3 related features and operations,    The M2 cards will give the data center the expansion to run 40G and 100G infrastructure. 

The initial series of line cards launched by cisco for Nexus 7k series switches were M1 and F1. M1 series line cards are basically used for all major layer 3 operations like MPLS, routing etc, however, the F1 series line cards are basically layer 2 cards and used for for FEX, Fabric Path, FCoE etc. If there is only F1 card in your chassis, then you cannot achieve layer 3 routing. You need to have a M1 card installed in chassis so that F1 card can send the traffic to M1 card for proxy routing. The fabric capacity of M1 line card is 80 Gbps. Since F2 line card don’t have L3 functionality, they are cheaper and provide a fabric capacity of 230 Gbps.
Later cisco released M2 and F2 series of line cards. A F2 series line card can also do basic Layer 3 functions, however, cannot be used for OTV or MPLS.  M2 line card's fabric capacity is 240 Gbps while F2 series line cards have fabric capacity of 480 Gbps.

M1 series modules:	1G modules: N7K-M148GT-11L, N7K-M148GS-11L 10G modules: N7K-M108X2-12L, N7K-M132XP-12L
M2 series modules:	10G module: N7K-M224XP-23L 40G module: N7K-M206FQ-23L 100G module: N7K-M202CF-22L

F1 series modules:	1G/10G module: N7K-F132XP-15
F2 series modules:	1G/10G module: N7K-F248XP-25
F2e series modules:	1G/10G modules: N7K-F248XP-25E, N7K-F248XT-25E
