Introduction

Physical Architecture Considerations

LAG Configuration

The RC (when installed on bare metal, Rover and Unicycle genesis nodes boot via their VLAN tagged 'host' interfaces which are pre-provisioned on the serving TOR switches with LAG bonding. Since booting occurs before the linux kernel can bring up its LAC-P signaling the TOR switches must be configured to pass traffic on their primary (first) link before the LAG bundle is up.

...

It is possible to split the 'host' network spanning the WAN into multiple routed L2 domains using functionality such as DHCP helper/relay on the Unicycle genesis TOR but this is unverified in R1. Note: this is not applicable to the other nodes in the unicycle pod as the DHCP and PXE boot process is supported over the local 'pxe' network.
