Attach modes

ovhcloud-occ-level-2-and-3-graph

Layer 2 (L2) connectivity:

With a Layer 2 connection, directly connect your OVHcloud private network (vRack) to your infrastructure via a point-to-point Ethernet link. This mode is transparent for VLANs and is a secure way to interconnect your corporate network with the OVHcloud vRack. 


Layer 3 (L3) connectivity:

With a Layer 3 connection, connect your OVHcloud private network (vRack) to your corporate WAN. This mode offers flexibility and high availability with a dual connection via two points of presence (PoP). Automatic routing with load sharing guarantees a service level commitment (SLA) of 99.99%. 

Redundancy options

Attach to a single point of presence:
Connect to an OVHcloud PoP for reliable and cost-effective private access, ideal for non-critical workloads.

Dual PoP attachment:
For critical services, dual PoP attachment provides redundancy with connection to two sites, helping ensure high availability.

Port options for the data center:

  • 1-Port Configuration: A single port enables efficient and secure connectivity for standard workloads.
  • 2-Port Configuration: Increase resiliency and capacity with two ports, ideal for businesses requiring greater bandwidth or increased fault tolerance.

Régions multi-AZ

occ_3-az_layer_3_mode_-_v11_500x800

Connectivité à haute disponibilité et à faible latence pour les charges de travail critiques

Une région OVHcloud multi-Availability Zone (3-AZ) permet de déployer des services sur des infrastructures redondées, géographiquement suffisamment séparées pour résister à des incidents de grande ampleur (généralement espacées d’au moins 30 km), tout en restant assez proches pour garantir une très faible latence inter-AZ (inférieure à la milliseconde). Cette architecture est conçue pour les charges de travail critiques exigeant à la fois une haute disponibilité et une faible latence.

OVHcloud Connect s’intègre nativement à ce modèle multi-AZ en ajoutant une couche de connectivité privée résiliente. Au sein d’une même région géographique, au moins deux points de présence (PoP) OVHcloud Connect indépendants sont déployés et connectés aux trois Availability Zones, garantissant une redondance de bout en bout.

Cette fondation réseau robuste pour les cas d’usage critiques offre une connectivité privée, une sécurité renforcée et une fiabilité de niveau opérateur, avec des SLA élevés et une bande passante garantie.

Your questions answered

What is OVHcloud Connect used for?

OVHcloud Connect lets you extend your corporate network to your OVHcloud vRack private network, without having to create a VPN tunnel via the Internet. This connection is therefore faster, more reliable, and benefits from guaranteed bandwidth.

What solutions are compatible with OVHcloud Connect?

OVHcloud Connect is the extension of your OVHcloud vRack private network, meaning all solutions with vRack enabled are compatible.

How to choose between OSI layer 2 or layer 3 interconnection?

There are key differences between layer 2 and 3 networks that must be carefully considered to best meet your hybridization needs.

OSI Layer 2

The dedicated OVHcloud Connect Layer 2 solution means that the connection is transparent to the Ethernet protocol.

A Layer 2 interconnection facilitates the connection between your data center campus network and your OVHcloud vRack private network.

A basic understanding of LAN-type networks is recommended. 

Redundancy can be local within the same point of presence (PoP) via the 802.3ad LACP protocol.

Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) remain identical in your data center and within OVHcloud data centers.

OSI Layer 3

The dedicated OVHcloud Connect Layer 3 solution offers a connection managed by routers.

A Layer 3 interconnection enables the connection of your company's WAN network to your OVHcloud vRack private network, thus considering it as one or more sites integrated into the WAN network.

Advanced proficiency in MAN and WAN networks, as well as management of internetwork routing is recommended. 

Layer 3 networks require the set up of one or more private external BGP sessions between your organization and OVHcloud.

Redundancy can be local within a single point of presence (PoP) and geographically between two PoPs, using BGP redundancy mechanisms.

Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) are not shared between your data centers and OVHcloud data centers.

Can OVHcloud host my routers?

No. OVHcloud does not host network equipment for customers in its data centers and points of presence (PoPs). The customer must have their equipment hosted by their operator or a third party first, then request a connection with the OVHcloud equipment in the MeetMeRoom (MMR) of the points of presence, using the information provided in the Letter of Authorization (LOA).

What connections are supported by OVHcloud Connect?

We support single-mode fiber for compatible SFP/SFP+ modules, either 1000LX/LH (1 Gbps) or 10G-LR (10 Gbps).

When will my OVHcloud Connect solution be delivered and available for configuration?

Before you can begin the configuration, OVHcloud Connect must first be delivered.

OVHcloud Connect Provider will be delivered once the Service Key is sent to your email. The email typically arrives a few minutes after placing your order and finalizing it on our end. 

Once the order is finalized, OVHcloud will provide you with a Letter of Authorization (LOA), which allows your provider to perform the interconnection to your OVHcloud infrastructure.
