spateljrosser hey! 18:31
jamesdenton_spatel you around?20:15
spatelyes20:15
spatelwhats up 20:15
jamesdenton_re: my email about EVPN20:15
spatellet me check 20:15
jamesdenton_just from the other day... was observing some PXE issues (DHCP, really) and was curious to know if you're using Ironic20:16
spatelI am not using Ironic20:16
jamesdenton_k20:17
spatelI have simple PXE server to bootstrap my compute nodes 20:17
spatelI am curious why are you having issue with DHCP. Its just standard protocol 20:17
spatelDo you have arp-suppression in EVPN ?20:17
spatelTry to disable and see 20:17
jamesdenton_yeah, i agree. Not sure why, but the DHCP Offer seems to be dropped at the spine. ARP supression is disabled20:17
spatelEVPN should treat DHCP packet standard way20:18
jamesdenton_i would think so, too. Everything else seems to be OK. In fact, I kicked a machine via ISO and tested DHCP successfully20:19
spatelDo you have Cisco or Cumulus ?20:19
jamesdenton_Cisco 93180YC-FX320:19
spatelI have same hardware in my EVPN fabric 20:19
spatelI would like to see your config and I can share mine if you want :)20:20
jamesdenton_I'll see what I can do. Might be next week, as I'm officially PTO this week20:20
spatelOk sure! no worry 20:20
jamesdenton_what are you using for the underlay?20:20
spatelI have OSFP + BGP 20:21
spatelhttps://community.cisco.com/t5/software-defined-access-sd-access/border-drops-dhcp-discovery-packets/td-p/385820120:22
spatelThis is what I have pretty much - https://satishdotpatel.github.io/bgp-evpn-vxlan-in-datacenter/20:22
spatelI am running multicast for BUM traffic handling 20:23
jamesdenton_cool, yeah, i read that a few times :)20:24
spatelI am very curious that why DHCP getting dropped at spine? (spin is nothing but just l3 traffic forwarder)20:25
spatelmake sure MTUs are set to jumbo 20:26
jamesdenton_yeah, we see the packet on the leaf-side interface but not the spine-side20:27
jamesdenton_not sure what's happening there, as nothing relevant is logged and the forwarding tables look OK20:28
spatelmay be leaf switch not able to forward to spine. (again its just VxLAN tunnel to A to B leaf)20:28
spatelmake sure NXOS version is latest or no bug :)20:29
jamesdenton_yeah, we're on 10.x i need to verify20:29
spatelI am running nxos 9.10.3 20:29
jamesdenton_next week i will hit it hard. will let you know. might be worth downgrading to match and see20:30
spatelsure! I will forward you my config of spine and leaf and see if anything you missed 20:30
spatelmy fabric is all running L2 20:32
jamesdenton_sure, that would be appreciated. thanks20:32
