Prerequisites for Edge Spoke Gateway Deployment on Aviatrix Edge Platform - Aviatrix Documentation

The following are the prerequisites to deploy an Aviatrix Edge Spoke Gateway on the Aviatrix Edge Platform.

1. Procure and Onboard the Edge Device

Before you can deploy an Aviatrix Edge Spoke Gateway, you must procure and onboard your edge device onto the Aviatrix Edge Platform. For more information, see Installing Edge OS and Onboarding Dell Hardware .

2. Obtain Edge Gateway Interface IP Addresses

The Edge Spoke Gateway on the Aviatrix Edge Platform supports one WAN, one LAN, and one Management interface. You will need to provide the following information during Edge Gateway creation for your primary and secondary HA Edge Gateways.

WAN Interface	Description
Interface CIDR	The CIDR for the WAN interface. Interface CIDR must be in the format interface_ip/netmask (for example, 192.18.20.1/24).
Default Gateway IP	The Default Gateway IP address for the WAN interface. For CSP underlay, this is the remote side IP address of the BGP session on CSP VNG or VGW. If Link-Local Underlay CIDR is configured, the Default Gateway IP should be in the same subnet as the Link-Local Underlay CIDR, otherwise, it should be in the same subnet as the WAN Interface CIDR.
Public IP	The public IP for the WAN interface. The public IP of the WAN interface is used for peering connections over the public network.

LAN Interface	Description
Interface CIDR	The native VLAN interface IPv4 address. This interface is where untagged packets are sent.
IPv6 CIDR	The native VLAN interface IPv6 address. This interface is where untagged packets are sent.
VRRP Gateway IP	The Virtual IP for the VRRP Gateway, when VRRP is enabled.
Default Gateway IP	The Default Gateway IPv4 address for the native VLAN interface.
Default Gateway IPv6	The default Gateway IPv6 address for the LAN interface when Support for IPv6 is enabled. Not required if not using Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP).
VLAN ID	The VLAN ID of the VLAN segment. VLAN ID must be a number between 2 and 4092.
VLAN Interface CIDR	The VLAN IP address of the VLAN segment.
Default Gateway IP	The Default Gateway IP address of the VLAN segment.

MGMT Interface	Description
IP Assignment	The MGMT interface defaults to DHCP. This setting cannot be changed. The Edge Gateway will automatically NAT out of the physical MGMT interface of the edge node when using the Aviatrix Edge platform. Please see the Known Issue regarding the Management interface IP assignment.
Private Network	Leave this setting to Off. The Edge Gateway on the edge hardware requires public Internet reachability to connect to the Aviatrix Controller and Aviatrix Edge infrastructure in the cloud.
Egress CIDR (Primary)	The Egress CIDR is the public IP address which the Management interface uses. If the Public IP is used from Edge Gateway Management interface to establish connectivity to Aviatrix Controller, then configure the Public IP as the CIDR. The CIDR is then added to the Controller security group to allow incoming traffic from the Edge Gateway.
Egress CIDR (Secondary)	The Egress Public IP for the secondary Edge Gateway’s Management interface when High Availability is configured.

3. Provide Network Access

Aviatrix Edge Spoke Gateway requires outbound access to communicate with the Aviatrix Platform. You must allow access on the specified ports on your firewall. For all Edge gateway outbound access requirements, see Aviatrix Products: Required Access for External Sites on the Aviatrix Customer Support website.
