Configuring external routed network connectivity involves the
following steps:
-
Create a VRF under Tenant.
-
Configure L3 networking configuration for the VRF on the border
leaf switches, which are connected to the external routed network. This
configuration includes interfaces, routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, EIGRP),
protocol parameters, route-maps.
-
Configure policies by creating external-L3 EPGs under tenant and
deploy these EPGs on the border leaf switches. External routed subnets on a VRF
which share the same policy within the ACI fabric form one "External L3 EPG" or
one "prefix EPG".
Configuration is realized in two modes:
The following steps are for creating an OSPF external routed network
for a tenant. To create an OSPF external routed network for a tenant, you must
choose a tenant and then create a VRF for the tenant.

The examples in this section show how to provide external routed
connectivity to the "web" epg in the "OnlineStore" application for tenant
"exampleCorp".
