Enabling Multi-Tenancy:
            Secure Multi-tenant Network
                    Containers
 VN-Link allows per-VM
  segmentation of traffic with full         MPLS Core
  switching features
 VLANs and VRFs keep L2 / L3
  customer traffic isolated
 Virtual Device Contexts further
  isolate traffic and enhance
  operations
 Allows partitioning of data center
  services such as SLB, firewalling,
  etc.
 OTV allows seamless extension of
  tenants between pods



                                                                 Common Physical
