A company runs mission-critical infrastructure in a single data center. Due to business growth, it plans to open more data centers in the coming years. A network engineer is asked to recommend a network technology for data center interconnection that allows scalability and seamless VM mobility while providing maximum security and fault isolation between data centers.
Which technology must be used to meet these requirements?
To interconnect data centers while allowing scalability and seamless VM mobility, the appropriate technology would be OTV (Overlay Transport Virtualization). OTV addresses the needs for scalable data center interconnects by extending Layer 2 networks across geographically dispersed data centers. It ensures efficient and secure handling of traffic between data centers, supporting seamless VM mobility with minimal disruption, and providing fault isolation and enhanced security between different locations. TrustSec and CloudSec focus primarily on security aspects without addressing seamless VM mobility and scalability for data center interconnections, while UDLD is a protocol for detecting unidirectional links in network devices.
