+we're planning to have a mcast-ix.dn42 somewhere in the cloud at #dn42 for years now...
2
+
3
+now we have a pull req with cosmetical issues only: https://git.dn42.dev/dn42/registry/pulls/2572
4
+
5
+the whole idea is to consider the following hypervisor configuration:
6
+
7
+```
8
+dn42ix#show startup-config vdc
9
+vdc definition vm-bri
10
+ connect ethernet2825 vm-switch
11
+ cpu host
12
+ image /rtr/ix/bri.img
13
+ memory 1024
14
+ nic virtio-net-pci
15
+ mac cafe.beef.b00b
16
+ exit
17
+vdc definition vm-clearnet
18
+ local ethernet66602
19
+ local ethernet66603
20
+ connect ethernet66601 vm-switch
21
+ exit
22
+vdc definition vm-jlu5
23
+ connect ethernet1080 vm-switch
24
+ cpu host
25
+ image /rtr/ix/jlu5.img
26
+ cdrom /rtr/ix/jlu5.iso
27
+ memory 1024
28
+ exit
29
+vdc definition vm-lare
30
+ connect ethernet3035 vm-switch
31
+ cpu host
32
+ image /rtr/ix/lare.img
33
+ memory 1024
34
+ exit
35
+vdc definition vm-nop
36
+ connect ethernet1955 vm-switch
37
+ exit
38
+vdc definition vm-routeserver
39
+ exit
40
+vdc definition vm-switch
41
+ connect ethernet1080 vm-jlu5
42
+ connect ethernet1955 vm-nop
43
+ connect ethernet2825 vm-bri
44
+ connect ethernet3035 vm-lare
45
+ connect ethernet66601 vm-clearnet
46
+ exit

+dn42ix#

51
+now you can have drop-in replacement vm-s to experiment with like whats it looks a like if the ix is provisioned on a juniper vsrx3 shitload or a cisco nxosv or plain freerouter in software mode or in p4dpdk mode....
52
+
53
+then publishing a small report on r/networking on behalf of #dn42 measurements
54
+
55
+and probably doing even more crazyer projects/experiment if we settle to have a proper dn42 ix finally with low latency shared vlan between the vms...
56
+
57
+like a real ix...
58
+
59
+it'll be shitload in the beginning but hopefully it could improve the common knowledge....
