You are configuring an MX Series router to act as a Layer 3 gateway to route traffic between VXLANs in different data centers across a WAN connection. In this scenario, what must you do to enable this communication?
- Configure route reflectors.
- Change the UDP port used by the VXLANs.
- Configure the IRB interfaces to connect the VXLANs.
- Enable PIM on all interfaces.
Answer(s): C
Explanation:
To enable communication between VXLANs in different data centers across a WAN connection using an MX Series router, Integrated Routing and Bridging (IRB) interfaces must be configured. IRB interfaces provide Layer 3 routing capabilities within a VXLAN overlay network, allowing for inter-
VXLAN routing. By configuring IRB interfaces on the MX router, you enable it to act as a Layer 3 gateway, routing traffic between the different VXLANs across the data centers.
