The operation and management of compute and networking are unique in the the tools and skill-sets required, but do they necessarily need to be? Dinesh Dutt joins Network Collective to talk about the divergence of compute and networking, how it hasn’t always been this way, and why he believes it should return to being a unified effort.

The application process for the Hackathon@AIS is now open. The Hackathon@AIS is an event aimed at exposing engineers from the African region to Open Internet Standards development and is co-organized by the Internet Society and AFRINIC. This will be the second event in the series following a successful event held in Nairobi last year during the Africa Internet Summit.
A list of the topics that will be covered this year can be found here.
Network/Systems engineers, software developers, and computer science students are encouraged to apply as engagement in open Internet standards development can help further their careers.
The event will be held on the 9th and 10th of May 2018 in Dakar, Senegal. If you are interested in participating AND can commit to being available over the 2 days, please complete the application form. Space is limited and successful applicants will be notified and then be enrolled in various online training sessions in the build up to the event.
Fellowships will be awarded to strong applicants where possible.
Applications close on the 8th of April 2018.

Andy sent me this question:
I'm currently playing around with BGP & VXLANs and wondering: is there anything preventing from building a virtual IXP with VXLAN? This would be then a large layer 2 network - but why have nobody build this to now, or why do internet exchanges do not provide this?
There was at least one IXP that was running on top of VXLAN. I wanted to do a podcast about it with people who helped them build it in early 2015 but one of them got a gag order.
Read more ...This article is the second post in a series that is all about EVPN-VXLAN and Juniper QFX technology. This particular post is focussed specifically on EVPN Anycast Gateway and how to verify control plane and data plane on Juniper QFX10k series switches.
In my first post, I explained how to verify MAC learning behaviour in a single-homed host scenario. This time we’re going to look at how to verify control plane and data plane when using EVPN Anycast Gateway. As explained in my previous post, verifying and troubleshooting EVPN-VXLAN can be very difficult. Especially when you consider all the various elements that build up the control plane and data plane.
So, what is EVPN Anycast Gateway?
During the initial conception of EVPN L3 gateway, it was assumed that all PE devices would be configured with a Layer 3 interface (IRB) for a given Virtual Network. It was also intended that all IRB interfaces would be configured with the same IP address thus creating a redundant gateway mechanism.
This worked great until EVPN-VXLAN came along and crucially the hardware that was being deployed at the leaf layer no longer provided support for VXLAN L3 Gateway (IRB). As a result, Anycast Gateway, or Virtual Gateway Continue reading
