Scaling Up/Scaling Down HPE Gateways

High Performance Encryption (HPE) is an Aviatrix technology that enables 10 Gbps and higher IPsec performance between two single Aviatrix Gateway instances or between a single Aviatrix Gateway instance and on-prem Aviatrix appliance. You can change Gateway Size if needed to change gateway throughput. The gateway will restart with a different instance size. IP addresses per network interface The following tables list the maximum number of network interfaces per instance type, and the maximum number of private IPv4 addresses and IPv6 addresses per network interface: Constraints Initial Scenario Scale Up I’m going to scale to a c5n.9xlarge: Tunnels are created … Continue reading Scaling Up/Scaling Down HPE Gateways

Establishing Multiple External Connectivity using Aviatrix Site-2-Cloud (S2C)

The premises of this design is to establish a backup path using the internet to protect application flows that still leverage on-prem and or customers seating on a main campus accessing apps living on the cloud: As I don’t have a DX circuit I’m going to use a Site-to-Site VPN to simulate it and Site-2-Cloud from the AVX transit gateways will provide backup to the DX connection. Primary Configuration The primary connection uses DX and there are a few supported scenarios to integrate it with Aviatrix. I’m going to leverage private interfaces and connect it to a VGW on the … Continue reading Establishing Multiple External Connectivity using Aviatrix Site-2-Cloud (S2C)
