Configuring Easy Virtual Network

Last Updated: May 4, 2012

Easy Virtual Network (EVN) is an IP-based virtualization technology that provides end-to-end virtualization of the network. You can use a single IP infrastructure to provide separate virtual networks whose traffic paths remain isolated from each other. Configure Easy Virtual Network to configure two or more virtual IP networks.

Finding Feature Information

Your software release may not support all the features documented in this module. For the latest feature information and caveats, see the release notes for your platform and software release. To find information about the features documented in this module, and to see a list of the releases in which each feature is supported, see the Feature Information Table at the end of this document.

Use Cisco Feature Navigator to find information about platform support and Cisco software image support. To access Cisco Feature Navigator, go to www.cisco.com/go/cfn. An account on Cisco.com is not required.

Prerequisites for Configuring EVN

  • Implementing EVN in your network requires that you have a single IP infrastructure that you want to use to create two or more virtual networks. You want path isolation for the traffic on the different virtual networks.
  • You should understand the concepts in the Overview of Easy Virtual Network module.
  • We recommend you draw your network topology, indicating which interfaces on each router belong to which EVNs. The diagram will facilitate tracking which interfaces you are configuring as edge interfaces and which interfaces you are configuring as trunk interfaces.

How to Configure EVN

Configuring an Easy Virtual Network Trunk Interface

Perform this task to configure an EVN trunk interface, which connects routers to provide the core to transport traffic for multiple virtual networks. Traffic carried over a trunk interface is tagged. This task illustrates how to configure a trunk interface with a base VRF and two named VRFs: VRF red and VRF blue.

DETAILED STEPS
 Command or ActionPurpose
Step 1
enable


Example:

Router> enable

 

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.
 
Step 2
configure terminal


Example:

Router# configure terminal

 

Enters global configuration mode.

 
Step 3
vrf definition vrf-name


Example:

Router(config)# vrf definition red

 

Configures a VRF routing table instance and enters VRF configuration mode.

 
Step 4
vnet tag number


Example:

Router(config-vrf)# vnet tag 100

 

Specifies the global, numeric tag for the VRF.

  • The same tag number must be configured for the same virtual network on each edge and trunk interface.
  • When configuring EVN on a Cisco Catalyst 6500 Family networking device, we recommend you assign a vnet tag in the range 2-1000.
 
Step 5
description string


Example:

Router(config-vrf) description guest access

 

(Optional) Describes a VRF to help the network administrator looking at the configuration file.

 
Step 6
address-family ipv4


Example:

Router(config-vrf) address-family ipv4

 

Enters address family configuration mode to configure a routing session using standard IP Version 4 address prefixes.

 
Step 7
exit-address-family


Example:

Router(config-vrf-af) exit-address-family

 

Exits address family configuration mode.

 
Step 8
exit


Example:

Router(config-vrf)# exit

 

Exits to the next highest configuration mode.

 
Step 9
vrf definition vrf-name


Example:

Router(config)# vrf definition blue

 

Configures a VRF routing table instance and enters VRF configuration mode.

 
Step 10
vnet tag number


Example:

Router(config-vrf)# vnet tag 200

 

Specifies the global, numeric tag for the VRF.

  • The same tag number must be configured for the same VRF on each edge and trunk interface.
 
Step 11
description string


Example:

Router(config-vrf) description Finance

 

(Optional) Description of a VRF to help network administrator who is looking at configuration file.

 
Step 12
address-family ipv4


Example:

Router(config-vrf) address-family ipv4

 

Enters address family configuration mode to configure a routing session using standard IPv4 address prefixes.

 
Step 13
exit-address-family


Example:

Router(config-vrf-af) exit-address-family

 

Exits address family configuration mode.

 
Step 14
exit


Example:

Router(config-vrf)# exit

 

Exits to the next highest configuration mode.

 
Step 15
interface type number


Example:

Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/1

Step 16
ip address ip-address mask


Example:

Router(config-if)# ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

 

Sets a primary address for the interface.

 
Step 17
vnet trunk [list vrf-list-name]


Example:

Router(config-if)# vnet trunk

 

Defines a trunk interface.

  • By default, all VRFs defined with the vrf definition command run on all trunk interfaces on the router. Therefore, VRF red and VRF blue are now running on this interface.
  • Use the list vrf-list-name keyword/argument pair to restrict VRFs running on this trunk interface.
 
Step 18
vnet name vrf-name


Example:

Router(config-if)# vnet name red

 

(Optional) Enters virtual network interface mode.

  • The vnetcommand enters virtual network interface mode and allows you to configure features that apply to this VRF only, overriding global values. This step is not necessary if the global settings are acceptable for all of the VRFs on the interface.
  • After this step, you would configure one or more eligible commands, such as ip ospf cost. (Not shown in this task.) For the list of commands that can override global values, see Table 2 in the Overview of Easy Virtual Network section .
 
Step 19
exit-if-vnet


Example:

Router(config-if-vnet) exit-if-vnet

 

Exits VRF interface configuration mode to interface configuration mode.

Exits to the next highest configuration mode.

 
Step 22
router ospf process-id


Example:

Router(config)# router ospf 1

 

Configures an OSPF routing process and associates it with a VRF.

  • This OSPF instance has no VRF, so it is vnet global.
 
Step 23
network ip-address wildcard area area-id


Example:

Router(config-router) network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 area 0

 

Defines the interfaces on which OSPF runs and the area ID for those interfaces.

 
Step 24
exit


Example:

Router(config-router) exit

 

Exits to the next highest configuration mode.

 
Step 25
router ospf process-id vrf vrf-name


Example:

Router(config)# router ospf 2 vrf red

 

Configures an OSPF routing process and associates it with a VRF.

  • Each VRF needs its own OSPF instance, so use a different process-id for each VRF.
 
Step 26
network ip-address wildcard area area-id


Example:

Router(config-router) network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 area 0

 

Defines the interfaces on which OSPF runs and the area ID for those interfaces.

 
Step 27
exit


Example:

Router(config-router) exit

 

Exits to the next highest configuration mode.

 
Step 28
router ospf process-id vrf vrf-name


Example:

Router(config)# router ospf 3 vrf blue

 

Configures an OSPF routing process and associates it with a VRF.

  • Each VRF needs its own OSPF instance, so use a different process-id for each VRF.
 
Step 29
network ip-address wildcard area area-id


Example:

Router(config-router) network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 area 2

 

Defines the interfaces on which OSPF runs and the area ID for those interfaces.

 
Step 30
end


Example:

Router(config-vrf) end

 

Ends the configuration session and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

 

Enabling Only a Subset of VRFs over a Trunk Interface

The prior task, Configuring an Easy Virtual Network Trunk Interface, shows how to configure a trunk interface with two VRFs. By default, the trunk interfaces on a router can carry traffic for each VRF defined by the vrf definition command. However, you might want to enable only a subset of VRFs over a trunk interface, which is done by creating a VRF list. A maximum of 32 VRF lists can exist on a router. Perform the following task to create a VRF list. This task presumes that the VRF has already been configured.

SUMMARY STEPS

1.    enable

2.    configure terminal

3.    vrf list vrf-list-name

4.    member vrf-name

5.    Repeat Step 4 to add other VRFs to the list if desired.

6.    exit-vrf-list

7.    interface type number

8.    vnet trunk list vrf-list-name

9.    ip address ip-address mask

10.    end

11.    show vrf list [vrf-list-name]


DETAILED STEPS
 Command or ActionPurpose
Step 1
enable


Example:

Router> enable

 

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.
 
Step 2
configure terminal


Example:

Router# configure terminal

 

Enters global configuration mode.

 
Step 3
vrf list vrf-list-name


Example:

Router(config)# vrf list External

 

Defines a list of VRFs.

  • A vrf-list-name may contain up to 32 characters. Quotation marks, spaces, and * are not allowed.
 
Step 4
member vrf-name


Example:

Router(config-vrf-list)# member blue

 

Specifies an existing VRF as a member of a VRF list.

  • The VRF must already be defined before it can be added to a list.
 
Step 5
Repeat Step 4 to add other VRFs to the list if desired.  

(Optional) You might have a list with only one VRF if you want to apply that list to a trunk interface on which you want only one VRF.

 
Step 6
exit-vrf-list


Example:

Router(config-vrf-list)# exit-vrf-list

 

Exits VRF list configuration mode.

 
Step 7
interface type number


Example:

Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/1/1

 

Configures an interface and enters interface configuration mode.

 
Step 8
vnet trunk list vrf-list-name


Example:

Router(config-if)# vnet trunk list mylist

 

Defines a trunk interface and enables the VRFs that are on the VRF list.

  • Use the vrf-list-name defined in Step 3.
 
Step 9
ip address ip-address mask


Example:

Router(config-if)# ip address 10.1.3.1 255.255.255.0

 

Sets a primary address for the interface.

 
Step 10
end


Example:

Router(config-if) end

 

Ends the configuration session and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

 
Step 11

Example:

Router# show vrf list mylist

 

Displays information about a VRF list.

 

Configuring an EVN Edge Interface

Perform this task to configure an edge interface, which connects a user device to a virtual network. Traffic carried over an edge interface is untagged. The edge interface determines which virtual network the received traffic belongs to. Each edge interface is mapped to only one virtual network.

SUMMARY STEPS

1.    enable

2.    configure terminal

3.    interface type number

4.    vrf forwarding vrf-name

5.    ip address ip-address mask

6.    end


DETAILED STEPS
 Command or ActionPurpose
Step 1
enable


Example:

Router> enable

 

Enables privileged EXEC mode.

  • Enter your password if prompted.
 
Step 2
configure terminal


Example:

Router# configure terminal

 

Enters global configuration mode.

 
Step 3
interface type number


Example:

Router(config)# interface gigabitethernet 1/0/0

 

Configures an interface type.

 
Step 4
vrf forwarding vrf-name


Example:

Router(config-if)# vrf forwarding red

 

Defines an edge interface and determines the VRF that the incoming traffic belongs to.

  • The vrf-name must already be defined by a vrf definition command.
  • In this example, incoming traffic belongs to VRF red.
Note    Make sure you are not on the trunk interface when you are trying to configure an edge interface.
 
Step 5
ip address ip-address mask


Example:

Router(config-if)# ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0

 

Sets a primary address for the interface.

 
Step 6
end


Example:

Router(config-if) end

 

Ends the configuration session and returns to privileged EXEC mode.

 

What to Do Next

After you have configured an edge interface and a trunk interface, refer to your network diagram, and log on to a different router. If it is has an edge interface, configure that interface. If it has a trunk interface, configure that interface with the appropriate VRFs. Continue configuring each of the routers and interfaces that belong to each VRF.

Configure other protocol features you want running in your VRFs. See the appropriate IP Routing configuration guide.

Verifying EVN Configurations

Perform any of the following steps in this task to verify your configuration. Because a virtual network is a VRF, all the existing VRF show commands are supported for virtual networks. If a router has a mix of VRFs and virtual networks, the various show vrf commands will include both VRFs and virtual networks in the output.

SUMMARY STEPS

1.    enable

2.    show vnet tag

3.    show running-config [vrf | vnet][vrf-name]

4.    show vrf list [vrf-list-name]

Configuration Examples for Configuring EVN

Example: Virtual Networks Using OSPF with network Commands

In this example, network commands associate a shared VRF interface with a base VRF and two named VRFs, red and blue. There are three OSPF instances because each VRF needs its own OSPF instance. OSPF 1 has no VRF, so it is vnet global. 

vrf definition red
 vnet tag 100

 exit-address-family
!
vrf definition blue
 vnet tag 200

router ospf 3 vrf blue
 log-adjacency-changes
 network 10.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 area 2

Example: Virtual Networks Using OSPF with ip ospf vnet area Command

This example differs from the prior example regarding the association between OSPF instances and a particular interface. In this example, OSPF is running on all of the virtual networks of a trunk interface. The ip ospf vnet area command associates the GigabitEthernet 0/0/0 interface with the three OSPF instances. 

vrf definition red

Example: Command Inheritance and Virtual Network Interface Mode Override in an EIGRP Environment

Suppose a GigabitEthernet interface is configured with various EIGRP commands: 

interface gigabitethernet0/0/0
 vnet trunk
 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
 ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5
 ip authentication key-chain eigrp 1 x
 ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1 3
 ip dampening-change eigrp 1 30
 ip hello-interval eigrp 1 6
 ip hold-time eigrp 1 18
 no ip next-hop-self eigrp 1
 no ip split-horizon eigrp 1
 ip summary-address eigrp 1 1.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
end

Because a trunk is configured, a VRF subinterface is automatically created and the commands on the main interface are inherited by the VRF subinterface (g0/0/0.3, where the number 3 is the tag number from vnet tag 3 .) 

R1# show running-config vrf red
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 1072 bytes
vrf definition red
 vnet tag 3
 !
 address-family ipv4
 exit-address-family
 !

If you display that hidden subinterface with the show derived-config command, you'll see that all of the commands entered on GigabitEthernet 0/0/0 have been inherited by GigabitEthernet 0/0/0.3: 

R1# show derived-config interface gigabitethernet0/0/0.3
Building configuration...
Derived configuration : 478 bytes
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0/0.3
 description Subinterface for VNET red
 vrf forwarding red
 encapsulation dot1Q 3
 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.0
 ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5
 ip authentication key-chain eigrp 1 x
 ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1 3
 ip dampening-change eigrp 1 30
 ip hello-interval eigrp 1 6
 ip hold-time eigrp 1 18
 no ip next-hop-self eigrp 1
 no ip split-horizon eigrp 1
 ip summary-address eigrp 1 1.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
end

You can override those commands by using virtual network interface mode (under the vnet name command). For example: 

R1(config)# interface gigabitethernet0/0/0
R1(config-if)# vnet name red
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5 
! disable authen for e0/0.3 only
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip authentication key-chain eigrp 1 y   
! different key-chain
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip band eigrp 1 99                      
! higher bandwidth-percent
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip dampening-change eigrp 1
          ! disable dampening-change
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip hello eigrp 1 7
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip hold eigrp 1 21
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip next-hop-self eigrp 1
             ! enable next-hop-self for e0/0.3
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip split-horizon eigrp 1
               ! enable split-horizon
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip summary-address eigrp 1 1.0.0.0 255.0.0.0
   ! do not summarize on e0/0.3

end

Notice that g0/0.3 is now using the override settings:

end

Commands entered in vnet name submode are sticky. That is, when you enter a command in vnet name submode, it will nvgen, regardless of whether it is set to the same value as the default value. For example, the default hello value is 5. When the ip hello eigrp command is entered in vnet name submode, it will nvgen; it does not do that in any other mode. 

R1(config-if)# interface gigabitethernet0/0/2
R1(config-if)# vnet trunk
R1(config-if)# ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1 50
          <---<< this will NOT nvgen
R1(config-if)# ip hello eigrp 1 5
                       <---<< this will NOT nvgen
R1(config-if)# no ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5
 	<---<< this will NOT nvgen

R1(config-if-vnet)# ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1 50
       <---<< this will nvgen
R1(config-if-vnet)# ip hello eigrp 1 5
                    <---<< this will nvgen
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5

 vnet trunk
 no ip address

 !

Because of this sticky factor, to remove a configuration entry in vnet name submode, you typically must use the default form of that command. Some commands can also be removed using the no form; it depends on the command. Some commands use the no form to disable the command instead, such as the authentication and summary-address commands. 

R1(config-if-vnet)# default ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip bandwidth-percent eigrp 1
R1(config-if-vnet)# no ip hello eigrp 1

Example: Command Inheritance and Virtual Network Interface Mode Override in a Multicast Environment

The following example illustrates command inheritance and virtual network interface mode override in a multicast network. A trunk interface leverages the fact that configuration requirements from different VRFs will be similar over the same trunk interface. Eligible commands configured on the trunk interface are inherited by all VRFs running over the same interface.

In this example, IP multicast (PIM sparse mode) is configured on the trunk interface, which has several VRFs: 

vrf definition red
 vnet tag 13
 !
 address-family ipv4
 exit-address-family
!
ip multicast-routing
ip multicast-routing vrf red
interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0
 vnet trunk
 ip address 125.1.15.18 255.255.255.0
 ip pim sparse-mode

The user decides that he does not want IP multicast configured for VRF red on GigabitEthernet 0/1/0, so he uses the virtual network interface mode override. IP Multicast is disabled for VRF red only. The no ip pim command disables all modes of PIM, including sparse mode, dense mode, and sparse-dense mode, for VRF red. 

interface GigabitEthernet0/1/0
 vnet trunk
 ip address 125.1.15.18 255.255.255.0
 ip pim sparse-mode
 vnet name red
 no ip pim

Example: EVN Using IP Multicast

The following example configures PIM sparse mode and leverages Anycast RP for RP redundancy. (In this example, only one VRF is configured.)

Enable multicast routing globally and on each L3 interface. The black text indicates the group of commands configuring the global table; the red text indicates the group of commands configuring VRF red.
