This has never been a straightforward topic, and I have difficulty explaining it in a reasonable amount of time. So now I’m going to start sending people here. Really great job.

Thank you for creating this video! I like how you broke this down from an architectural standpoint. Looking forward to more videos!!

Great stuff, thanks for the informative video, side question, what tools do you use for the whiteboard demo? :-)

Hi Mike,

You didn’t cover the scenario where if we have T0 running Active Active then we need to enable NAT on T1 then how traffic will flow

Great video for understanding SR/DR - it's so easy to think when you create a service interface on a DR that the interface lives there, but really a SR is instantiated on the edge cluster and that's where the interface lives

I have a use case to try and push a VPN over a service interface on a dedicated T1 - is this possible? We always think of stateful services such as BGP, NAT etc taking place there but I want (for some special reasons) to run VPN in this way. in my case I want to use this service interface to connect to a VLAN backed segment rather than have the VPN route out up through NSX layers

Wouldn't there be a DR on both hosts? The return traffic would use the DR on the host with the edge VM? I might be confusing it.

Hey Mike, Is it possible to setup BGP between two T0 routers?
