Limitations on VXLAN
While conguring a VXLAN, the following conditions apply:
• Controller-based VXLAN is not supported in a VLT setup.
• VXLAN is not supported in a stacking setup.
• Routing over VXLAN is not supported in a controller-based VXLAN setup. In a static VXLAN setup, routing over VXLAN is supported
with physical external loopback.
• SNMP and REST API are not supported for VXLAN congurations.
• Multicast over VXLAN is not supported.
• In multicast and broadcast trac, even though the remote VTEP is reachable through the ECMP path, load balancing is not supported.
• Only one Remote VTEP can be reached through a single interface in a broadcast domain.
• Single VNI can be mapped to Single VLAN only in static VXLAN. Hence, only 4000 VNIs are supported while conguring static VXLAN.
• You can congure only one Nuage controller in a VXLAN setup. Nuage controller datapath-learning is not supported.
• In a Nuage controller-based VXLAN setup, station move across VTEP is not supported.
NOTE
: When more than 15000 learned MAC addresses are synchronized from the Nuage controller to one of the VTEPs, the SSL
connection between the controller and the VTEP aps continuously.
Displaying Static VXLAN Congurations
To display the static VXLAN congurations, use the following commands.
Examples of the show vxlan-instance Command
The following example displays the basic conguration details.
