Simplifying and Making the Network Programmable with Kubernetes and SRv6

Simplifying and Making the Network Programmable with Kubernetes and SRv6 - Daniel Bernier, Bell Canada & Louis De Los Santos, Isovalent

SRv6 is being rapidly deployed by some of the largest names in the networking industry because it has the potential to simplify existing enterprise, telco, and provider networks while also introducing the idea of “programming the network as a computer.” Networking teams are now looking for ways to bridge the gap between SRv6 and Kubernetes to treat containers as ordinary clients on their networks. This talk will discuss how Cilium and its eBPF data plane was extended to support telco networking requirements in a cloud native way by integrating SRv6 and Kubernetes. It will start with an overview of the SRv6 use cases and network architecture at Bell Canada. We will then demo how Cilum’s SRv6 integration can be utilized with BGP to build a multi-cluster L3VPN topology over native IPv6.

Any chance to get these yamls and FRR config to reproduce this lab by myself? Thank you
