Hey everyone. I'm interested in purchasing a pair of Lindberg eyeglasses and associated lenses. A nearby Lindberg retailer assured me that it is not possible to use my Eyemed Vision benefits towards Lindberg frames and lenses because Lindberg as a manufacturer does not allow insurance reimbursements. The provider is basically refusing to submit an in-network claim. I called a few other retailers in the area and none of them had heard of this restriction with Lindberg. Anyone have any insight on this?

Thanks in advance.

Hey everyone,

Municipal utility with water/wastewater, gas, electric, and telecommunication services. Telco network is Arista SR-MPLS with BGP EVPN for services overlay for L2VPN/pseudowires and L3VPN. I am working on a proof or concept refresh of the campus network using Arista hardware and deploying an EVPN VXLAN campus fabric for zero-trust macro-segmentation. A large business use-case for this design is using EVPN to build overlay networks to provide segmentation of OT/SCADA networks.

I haven't been able to find any use-case/vendor validated designs. Curious if anyone has implemented a similar solution, and interested to hear other network operators thoughts.

Edit to add context of specific business challenge:

As most here have probably experienced, IT costs have exploded recently. 4 different SCADA networks = 8 firewalls (4 x 2 at each site). A similar challenge exist for server hardware and broadcomm licensing. Each SCADA network historically has 2x physically separate server hardware for virtualized workloads and services.

Using something like a L2-only VN with gateway outside the fabric on a pair of centralized firewalls can provide equivalent security and minimize infrastructure costs. Similarly, SCADA specific workloads can be migrated to IT network server environment, eliminating the need for SCADA servers and associated costs.
