Azure ExpressRoute VLAN Configuration
It has been some time since I built an ExpressRoute within the Equinix Fabric. Our topology is using Fabric Ports (not Virtual Devices). We have a primary and secondary port. We have built the ExpressRoute in Azure as well as the ExpressRoute VC in Equinix but are having trouble getting end-to-end connectivity. In the overview page of the ExpressRoute connection in the Equinix Fabric, there is an Origin VLAN and Destination VLAN. The Origin VLAN tags are different (Primary is 4025 and Secondary is 4026) but the Destination VLAN tag is the same (37 in this case). Where do we configure those? In the ExpressRoute Private Peering in Azure, we can only enter a single VLAN tag. Do we configure 4025/4026 on our routers and 37 in Azure, visa versa, or do we configure the same on both? The KB articles and videos do not cover this.Interested in hearing about Fabric product updates and new launches?
