Juniper Apstra and NSX-T integration provides below benefits:

  1. Apstra software can connect to the NSX-T API to gather information about the inventory in terms of hosts, clusters, VMs, portgroups, vDS/N-vDS, and NICs within the NSX-T environment.
  2. NSX-T integration with Apstra provides operator visibility into the VMs, VM ports, and their connectivity to the ToR switch.
  3. NSX-T integration helps identify issues on the fabric and on the virtual infrastructure.
  4. Apstra Virtual Infrastructure visibility helps provide underlay/overlay correlation visibility and uses IBA analytics for overlay/underlay.
  5. By using Apstra, NSX-T deployments can be accelerated as the fabric is ready in terms of LAG, MTU, and VLAN configuration as per NSX-T transport node requirements.
  6. Juniper Hardware tested for the Junos release Junos 22.2R3-S3 are listed in Table 7: Devices under Test (Validated devices).
  7. In terms of software versions, all software versions listed in Table 3 and Table 4 are recommended. Any deviations from these should be tested thoroughly.
