Hi everyone!
I'm designing a small DC for 2 racks with an opportunity to scale. This scheme is used Cisco devices. Two Nexus9K as distribution switches with N2K FEX switches on access layer. End servers use LACP for a connection into FEXes. N9K use VPC for multi-device LACP supporting. Routers ASR1K use HSRP for vlan gateways and VRFs to separate tenant's vlans. ASRs get default route from ISPs through eBGP and use iBGP for ISP active/passive redundancy. Active HSRP ASR checks Internet connectivity by IP SLA and change HSRP priority in case Internet resource is unreachable.

- What changes can you suggest to my scheme?
- Is there a reason to change HSRP gateways from ASR to N9K to increase bandwidth for East-West traffic? How to organise ISP redundancy in that case?
- Is there a reason to connect ISP links into N9K and terminate in ASR instead of direct connect with ASR?
- How to orginise ISP redundancy when both ISP provide connection links to both ASRs?
- What equivalent Juniper devices should I use instead N9Ks and FEXs? I've considered QFX10002 with Fusion technology, but QFX10002 cost is much higher than N9K.
Thanks for your answers!
