Advertise VXLAN source IP address
1. Advertise the IP address of the local source tunnel interface to all VTEPs in the underlay IP network using the existing
routing infrastructure. This example uses OSPF to advertise the VXLAN source IP address on Ethernet1/1/3, which is the
underlay network-facing interface:
OS10(config)# router ospf 100
OS10(config-ospf)# router-id 110.111.170.195
OS10(config-ospf)# exit
OS10(config)# interface ethernet1/1/3
OS10(config-if-eth1/1/3)# ip ospf 100 area 0.0.0.0
OS10(config-if-eth1/1/3)# exit
OS10(config)# interface loopback 1
OS10(config-if-lo-1)# ip ospf 100 area 0.0.0.0
Each VTEP switch in the underlay IP network learns the IP address of the VXLAN source interface. If a remote VTEP switch
is not reachable, its status displays as DOWN in the show nve remote-vtep output.
2. Configure the MTU value on L3 underlay network-facing interfaces in Interface mode to be at least 50 bytes higher than the
MTU on the server-facing links to allow for VXLAN encapsulation. The range is from 1312 to 9216.

3. Return to CONFIGURATION mode.

Configure VLT
(Optional) To use VXLAN in a VLT domain, configure the VLT domain — including the VLT Interconnect (VLTi) interfaces,
backup heartbeat, and VLT MAC address — as described in the OS10 Enterprise Edition User Guide in the Virtual link trunking
section.
Required VLT VXLAN configuration:
● The IP address of the VTEP source Loopback interface must be same on the VLT peers.
● If you use a port-scoped VLAN to assign tagged access interfaces to a virtual network, to identify traffic belonging to each
virtual network, you must configure a unique VLAN ID for the VLT Interconnect (VLTi) link.
● Configure a VLAN to transmit VXLAN traffic over the VLTi link in VIRTUAL-NETWORK mode. All traffic sent and received
from a virtual network on the VLTi carries the VLTi VLAN ID tag.
