Episode 16 – Overview of Overlays

Whether it’s a single GRE tunnel or a full Datacenter fabric, network overlays have played significant role in empowering network engineers to implement policy beyond simple IP reachability. In episode 16 of Network Collective we take a broad look at the types of overlays available to use in our networks, why you might want to implement an overlay, and some of the things to watch out for when employing overlay networking. Joining the NC hosts are two excellent guests: Ron Fuller, currently an SE at VMware on the NSX product team, and Warren Jackson, Technical Architect at WWT with a focus on SD-WAN technology.
