Creating a VXC to an MVE Integrated with Arista VeloCloud

This topic describes how to connect a Virtual Cross Connect (VXC) to Megaport Virtual Edge (MVE) integrated with Arista VeloCloud SD-WAN. With MVE configured, you can create VXCs to connect to services on the Megaport network without the need for any physical infrastructure. A VXC is essentially a private point-to-point Ethernet connection between an A-End (your MVE) and a B-End (one of the destination types). A VXC is mapped with a VLAN ID on each end. You can order VXCs to reach any destination in the Megaport network. The maximum number of VXCs you can connect to a single MVE depends on its size. For more information, see Megaport Limits and Quotas. To create a VXC

In the , go to the Services page and select the MVE you want to use.
If this is the first connection for the MVE, click the Cloud tile that matches the VXC type. The tile is a shortcut to the configuration page. Alternatively, click +Connection and select a cloud destination:
- Cloud — Provision a dedicated interconnect to a public cloud service provider. After selecting Cloud, select a provider. Some providers require a service key. For specific CSP configuration details:
  - AWS Direct Connect — See Creating MVE Connections to AWS.
  - Azure Express Route — See Creating MVE Connections to Azure using ExpressRoute.
  - Google Cloud — See Creating MVE Connections to Google.
  - Other cloud connections — See Creating MVE Connections Any Endpoint.

Connecting MVE to MVE

In the Megaport Portal, you can create a VXC (interconnect connectivity) between MVEs at two or more Megaport locations. The VXC links the branch locations connected to these edge MVEs via the Megaport network, without traversing the public internet for the MVE to MVE connectivity. For specific configuration details, see Connecting MVEs.

Terminating a VXC

You can terminate a VXC directly from the Megaport Portal. Terminating an MVE automatically deletes all of its associated VXCs, including the Megaport Internet connection. For more information about terminating an MVE, see Terminating an MVE. For more information about terminating a VXC, see Terminating a VXC.
