Static Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN)
When you create a Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) , you need Network Virtualization Platform (NVP) Controller to configure
and control the VXLAN. When you create a VXLAN instance in static mode, you can configure the VXLAN using CLIs instead of
using the Controller.
Once you create a VXLAN instance in the static mode, you can create a VNI profile, associate a VNID to the VNI profile,
associate a remote VTEP to the VNID, and associate the VNID to a VLAN using the CLIs.
Configuring Static VXLAN
Port VLAN bindings in the context of VXLAN is achieved by associating a port to VLAN using tagged or untagged interface CLIs.
If a VLAN has VNID associated and the port is VXLAN-enabled, then port-vlan participates in VXLAN and Layer 2 switching does
not happen in that port-vlan. A VXLAN-enabled VLAN can also have non-VXLAN ports as members. But switching cannot
happen between VXLAN ports and non-VXLAN ports.
To configure the static VXLAN on the switch, follow these steps:
1. Enable VXLAN configuration globally on the platform.
CONFIGURATION mode
feature vxlan
2. Enable static VXLAN instance.
CONFIGURATION mode
INTERFACE mode
vxlan-instance instance ID [static]
You can configure vxlan-instance on INTERFACE mode to enable VXLAN on specific ports.
3. Set the local IP Address that can be used as a source for VXLAN tunnels.
VXLAN-INSTANCE mode
local-vtep-ip IP Address
4. Create a VNI profile to associate with remote VTEP configuration.
VXLAN-INSTANCE mode
vni—profile profile name
5. Associate VNID to the VNI profile.
VNI-PROFILE mode
vnid VNID Range
6. Create a remote tunnel and associate the remote VTEP to the VNID.
VXLAN-INSTANCE mode
remote—vtep—ip remote IP Address vni-profile profile name
7. Enable the VXLAN.
VXLAN-INSTANCE mode
