# Deployment & Testing Checklist
## ✅ What Was Fixed
- [x] Host VLAN tagging configuration in topology file
- [x] All 4 hosts now create VLAN subinterfaces (bond0.XX)
- [x] Leaf port-channels properly configured for access mode
- [x] BGP configuration in leafs includes `ip routing` command
- [x] MLAG configurations validated on all 4 leaf pairs
- [x] VXLAN VTEP configuration in place
- [x] EVPN overlay configuration complete
## 🚀 Deployment Steps
### 1. Check Current Branch
```bash
cd ~/arista-evpn-vxlan-clab
git branch
git status
```
Should show: `fix-bgp-and-mlag` branch
### 2. Destroy Current Lab (if running)
```bash
sudo containerlab destroy -t evpn-lab.clab.yml --cleanup
```
### 3. Deploy Fixed Lab
```bash
sudo containerlab deploy -t evpn-lab.clab.yml
# Wait 60-90 seconds for all containers to start
```
### 4. Verify Lab is Running
```bash
sudo containerlab inspect -t evpn-lab.clab.yml
```
Should show all 10 nodes (2 spines + 8 leaves + 4 hosts) as RUNNING

## 🔧 If Tests Fail
### L2 ping fails
```bash
# 1. Check host VLAN interface
docker exec clab-arista-evpn-fabric-host1 ip addr show bond0.40
# Should show: inet 10.40.40.101/24 dev bond0.40
# 2. Check port-channel status
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf1 "show interface Port-Channel1"
# Should show: up, up
# 3. Check VLAN 40 exists on leaf
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf1 "show vlan 40"
# Should show: VLAN 40 exists
# 4. Check MAC learning (generate traffic)
docker exec clab-arista-evpn-fabric-host1 arping -c 3 10.40.40.1
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf1 "show mac address-table vlan 40"
# Should show host1 MAC
```
### L3 ping fails
```bash
# 1. Check VRF VLAN interface
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf3 "show interface Vlan34"
# Should show: up, up
# 2. Check VRF routing enabled
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf3 "show ip route vrf gold"
# Should show routes
# 3. Check VXLAN VRF mapping
ssh admin@clab-arista-evpn-fabric-leaf3 "show interface Vxlan1"
# Should show: vxlan vrf gold vni 100001
```

## 📝 Notes for Next Steps
1. **If all tests pass** ✅
- Create pull request to merge `fix-bgp-and-mlag` into `main`
- Document the changes in FIXES_APPLIED.md
- Update main branch documentation
2. **If specific tests fail** ⚠️
- Review the troubleshooting section above
- Check device logs: `show log`
- Review configuration with `show running-config`
