There are two distinctive scenarios for MX server sled VM to MX server sled VM connectivity:
- MX sled VM to MX sled VM in the same chassis
- MX sled VM to MX sled VM in separate chassis in the same MCM group
To obtain network connectivity for both scenarios, use the configuration steps that are provided in the Configuration steps section. A logical topology is provided for each example below.
VMs on different compute sleds in the same MX chassis
This scenario consists of two VMs on separate MX compute sleds.
The same information within the Configuration Steps section is used for this scenario. The same steps are also used in the other VM to VM network connectivity example scenarios in this guide.
VMs on different MX chassis in the same MCM group
To establish connectivity between VMs in two different MX chassis within the same MCM group, follow the instructions that are provided within this section. First, configure one or more MX chassis in same MCM group, in which one chassis serves as the lead and another chassis serves as a secondary chassis.
With an MCM group configured, use the same steps that are provided in the Configuration Steps section to obtain connectivity between the VMs in this example.
