Published December 2014

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate multitenancy across physical and logical environments leveraging Network Virtualization Overlay (NVO) and VRF-lite

Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) allows a Dell Networking L3 switch/router to be partitioned into multiple Virtual Routers (VRs). The control and data plane are isolated in each VR so traffic does not flow across VRs; this allows different routing tables to simultaneously exist within the same physical L3 switch/router. VRF-lite also supports route leaking, which enables routes to be distributed across VRs in a controlled manner. VRFlite is supported on the following Dell Networking switches: S4810, S4820T, S5000, S6000, Z9500, and CSeries chassis. In this white paper VRF-lite is used on Dell S6000 switches.
