Solution Details NetApp ® Private Storage for SoftLayer ™ © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 13

In Equinix data centers chosen for proximity to SoftLayer compute for low latency Available from IBM Global Technology Services * * Seattle location requires a cross-connect from the Westin © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 14 Tokyo Singapore Washington DC Amsterdam Seattle*Dallas San Jose

What Is the Role of Equinix in the Solution?  Equinix provides carrier-neutral access to the SoftLayer cloud  Equinix data centers are geographically close to SoftLayer compute to provide low latency  Equinix has a global footprint  Equinix data centers provide state-of-the-art security and operational availability so that your data is secure and available Equinix is not a service provider The carrier-neutral aspect of Equinix offers flexibility to connect NetApp ® storage to multiple clouds and networks © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 15

What Types of NetApp Storage Can Be Used?  Both 7-Mode and clustered Data ONTAP ® operating modes can be used in the solution  Clustered Data ONTAP operating mode is highly recommended  Testing of E-Series storage with iSCSI with the solution is under way © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 16

Customer Network Equipment Requirements Optional Features  Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol  This is used to help support routing between NPS regions or back to on premises  Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF)  Support for isolation of routing when using multiple Direct Link VLAN connections  Redundant network switches  10Gbps Ethernet ports  Used to connect to NetApp storage Required Features  Border Gateway Protocol  Direct Link ® uses only BGP for routing  9/125 single-mode fiber (1Gbps or 10Gbps) Ethernet port  1000BASE-T Ethernet ports  Used to connect or manage NetApp® storage  Support for 802.1Q VLAN tags © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 17

 IP storage protocols (iSCSI, NFS, or CIFS) can be used to connect SoftLayer compute to NetApp Private Storage  Check for supported iSCSI SAN connectivity elementshttps://support.netapp.com/matrix  SoftLayer Virtual Servers connect at the guest level – no RDM or pass through LUNs  SoftLayer Bare Metal Servers can run hypervisors as well as operating systems Connecting SoftLayer Compute to NetApp Storage © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 18 NPS for SoftLayer SoftLayer Direct Link SoftLayer Bare Metal Servers VM SoftLayer Virtual Servers VM Colocation datacenter NetApp Array

SoftLayer Direct Link Network Architecture  SoftLayer ® uses 802.1q VLANs to segregate and route network traffic  SoftLayer connections can be partitioned into multiple connections segregated by VLAN  Routing is segregated by using the virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) feature on the switch  Each VRF routes a single VLAN using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)  VLAN interfaces on the NetApp ® storage segregate access to specific SVMs  Supports secure multi-tenancy © 2014 NetApp, Inc. All rights reserved. 19

Solution Deployment Workflow  Order virtual servers or bare metal servers in the location where NPS will be deployed  SoftLayer account will be created with order  Use SoftLayer portal to order a Direct Link connection  SoftLayer LOA is generated  Request BGP Peering addresses, VLAN, and BGP auth key  Ensure that the Direct Link cross connect is patched correctly  Configure the network switch with the BGP information provided by SoftLayer  Configure NetApp network connectivity  Verify network connectivity from SoftLayer network to local network  Connect compute to NetApp storage Step 4 Configure Storage and Connect Step 3 Configure Local Network Step 2 Create SoftLayer Direct Link Step 1 Order SoftLayer ™ Compute and Network © 2014 NetApp, Inc.
