EVPN VXLAN uses EVPN routes for VXLAN tunnel establishment and assignment and MAC reachability information advertisement in the control plane and uses VXLAN for forwarding in the data plane.

As shown in Figure 1, EVPN uses the VXLAN technology for traffic forwarding in the data plane. The transport edge devices assign VMs to different VXLANs, and then forward traffic between sites for VMs by using VXLAN tunnels. The transport edge devices are VXLAN tunnel endpoints (VTEPs). They can be servers that host VMs or independent network devices.

A VTEP uses ESs, VSIs, and VXLAN tunnels to provide VXLAN services:

· Ethernet segment (ES)—An ES is a link that connects a site to a VTEP. Each ES is uniquely identified by an Ethernet segment identifier (ESI).

· VSI—A virtual switch instance is a virtual Layer 2 switched domain. Each VSI provides switching services only for one VXLAN. VSIs learn MAC addresses and forward frames independently of one another. VMs in different sites have Layer 2 connectivity if they are in the same VXLAN. A VXLAN is identified by a 24-bit VXLAN ID which is also called the virtual network identifier (VNI). A VXLAN corresponds to an EVPN instance.

· VXLAN tunnel—A VXLAN tunnel is a logical point-to-point tunnel between VTEPs over the transport network. Each VXLAN tunnel can trunk multiple VXLANs.

All VXLAN processing is performed on VTEPs. The ingress VTEP encapsulates VXLAN traffic in the VXLAN, outer UDP, and outer IP headers, and forwards the traffic through VXLAN tunnels. The egress VTEP removes the VXLAN encapsulation and forwards the traffic to the destination. Transport network devices (for example, the P device in Figure 1) forward VXLAN traffic only based on the outer IP header of VXLAN packets.

Figure 1 EVPN VXLAN network model

Configuration automation

If EVPN is used for Layer 2 forwarding, VTEPs use the following BGP EVPN routes to discover VTEP neighbors, establish VXLAN tunnels, and assign the tunnels to VXLANs:

· IMET route—VTEPs advertise their VXLAN IDs through IMET routes. If two VTEPs have the same VXLAN ID, they automatically establish a VXLAN tunnel and assign the tunnel to the VXLAN.

· MAC/IP advertisement route—VTEPs advertise local MAC addresses and VXLAN IDs through MAC/IP advertisement routes. If two VTEPs have the same VXLAN ID, they automatically establish a VXLAN tunnel and assign the tunnel to the VXLAN.

If EVPN is used for Layer 3 forwarding, VTEPs use the following BGP EVPN routes to discover VTEP neighbors, establish VXLAN tunnels, and assign the tunnels to VXLANs:

· IMET route—VTEPs advertise the VXLAN IDs they have through IMET routes. If two VTEPs have the same VXLAN ID, they automatically establish a VXLAN tunnel and assign the tunnel to the VXLAN.

· MAC/IP advertisement route and IP prefix advertisement route—In the EVPN gateway deployment, VTEPs advertise MAC/IP advertisement routes or IP prefix advertisement routes which carry the export targets. When a VTEP receives a route, it compares the export targets of the route with the local import targets. If the route targets match, the VTEP establishes a VXLAN tunnel with the remote VTEP and associates the tunnel with the L3 VXLAN ID of the corresponding VPN instance. For more information about the L3 VXLAN ID, see "Distributed EVPN gateway deployment."

Assignment of traffic to VXLANs

Traffic from the local site to a remote site

The VTEP uses an Ethernet service instance or Layer 3 interface to match a list of VLANs on a site-facing interface. The VTEP assigns customer traffic to a VXLAN by mapping the Layer 3 interface or Ethernet service instance to a VSI. An Ethernet service instance or Layer 3 interface is identical to an attachment circuit (AC) in L2VPN.

As shown in Figure 2, Ethernet service instance 1 matches VLAN 2 and is mapped to VSI A (VXLAN 10). When a frame from VLAN 2 arrives, the VTEP assigns the frame to VXLAN 10 and looks up VSI A's MAC address table for the outgoing interface.

Figure 2 Identifying traffic from the local site

Traffic from a remote site to the local site

When a VXLAN packet arrives at a VXLAN tunnel interface, the VTEP uses the VXLAN ID in the packet to identify its VXLAN.

Layer 2 forwarding

MAC learning

The VTEP performs Layer 2 forwarding based on a VSI's MAC address table. The VTEP learns MAC addresses by using the following methods:

· Local MAC learning—The VTEP automatically learns the source MAC addresses of frames sent from the local site. The outgoing interfaces of local MAC address entries are site-facing interfaces on which the MAC addresses are learned.

· Remote MAC learning—The VTEP uses MP-BGP to advertise local MAC reachability information to remote sites and learn MAC reachability information from remote sites. The outgoing interfaces of MAC address entries advertised from a remote site are VXLAN tunnel interfaces.

Unicast

As shown in Figure 3, the VTEP performs typical Layer 2 forwarding for known unicast traffic within the local site.

Figure 3 Intra-site unicast

As shown in Figure 4, the following process applies to a known unicast frame between sites:

1. The source VTEP encapsulates the Ethernet frame in the VXLAN/UDP/IP header.

In the outer IP header, the source IP address is the source VTEP's VXLAN tunnel source IP address. The destination IP address is the VXLAN tunnel destination IP address.

2. The source VTEP forwards the encapsulated packet out of the outgoing VXLAN tunnel interface found in the VSI's MAC address table.

3. The intermediate transport devices (P devices) forward the packet to the destination VTEP by using the outer IP header.

4. The destination VTEP removes the headers on top of the inner Ethernet frame. It then performs MAC address table lookup in the VXLAN's VSI to forward the frame out of the matching outgoing interface.

Figure 4 Inter-site unicast

Flood

As shown in Figure 5, a VTEP floods a broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast frame to all site-facing interfaces and VXLAN tunnels in the VXLAN, except for the incoming interface. The source VTEP replicates the flood frame, and then sends one replica to the destination IP address of each VXLAN tunnel in the VXLAN. Each destination VTEP floods the inner Ethernet frame to all the site-facing interfaces in the VXLAN. To avoid loops, the destination VTEPs do not flood the frame to VXLAN tunnels.

Figure 5 Forwarding of flood traffic

Centralized EVPN gateway deployment

Centralized EVPN gateway deployment uses one VTEP to provide Layer 3 forwarding for VXLANs. The VTEP uses virtual Layer 3 VSI interfaces as gateway interfaces for VXLANs. Typically, the gateway-collocated VTEP connects to other VTEPs and the external network. To use this design, make sure the gateway has sufficient bandwidth and processing capability. A centralized EVPN gateway can provide services only for IPv4 sites.

As shown in Figure 6, a VTEP acts as a gateway for VMs in the VXLANs. The VTEP both terminates the VXLANs and performs Layer 3 forwarding for the VMs. The network uses the following process to forward Layer 3 traffic from a VM to the destination:

1. The VM sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of the VSI interface that acts as the gateway, and then sends the Layer 3 traffic to the centralized EVPN gateway.

2. The local VTEP looks up the matching VSI's MAC address table and forwards the traffic to the centralized EVPN gateway through a VXLAN tunnel.

3. The centralized EVPN gateway removes the VXLAN encapsulation and forwards the traffic at Layer 3.

4. The centralized EVPN gateway forwards the replies sent by the destination node to the VM based on the ARP entry for the VM.

Figure 6 Example of centralized EVPN gateway deployment

Distributed EVPN gateway deployment

About distributed EVPN gateway deployment

Distributed EVPN gateway deployment deploys one EVPN gateway on each VTEP to provide Layer 3 forwarding for VXLANs at their respective sites. The gateways use virtual Layer 3 VSI interfaces as gateway interfaces for VXLANs. This design distributes the Layer 3 traffic load across VTEPs. However, its configuration is more complex than the centralized EVPN gateway design. A distributed EVPN gateway can provide services for IPv4 sites.

As shown in Figure 7, each site's VTEP acts as a gateway to perform Layer 3 forwarding for the VXLANs of the local site. A VTEP acts as a border gateway to the Layer 3 network for the VXLANs.

Figure 7 Distributed EVPN gateway placement design

Symmetric IRB

A distributed EVPN gateway uses symmetric IRB for Layer 3 forwarding, which means both the ingress and egress gateways perform Layer 2 and Layer 3 lookups. Symmetric IRB introduces the following concepts:

· L3 VXLAN ID—Also called L3 VNI. An L3 VXLAN ID identifies the traffic of a routing domain where devices have Layer 3 reachability. An L3 VXLAN ID is associated with one VPN instance. Distributed EVPN gateways use VPN instances to isolate traffic of different services on VXLAN tunnel interfaces.

· Router MAC address—Each distributed EVPN gateway has a unique router MAC address used for inter-gateway forwarding. The MAC addresses in the inner Ethernet header of VXLAN packets are router MAC addresses of distributed EVPN gateways.

VSI interfaces

As shown in Figure 8, each distributed EVPN gateway has the following types of VSI interfaces:

· VSI interface as a gateway interface of a VXLAN—The VSI interface acts as the gateway interface for VMs in a VXLAN. The VSI interface is associated with a VSI and a VPN instance. On different distributed EVPN gateways, the VSI interface of a VXLAN uses the same IP address to provide services.

· VSI interface associated with an L3 VXLAN ID—The VSI interface is associated with a VPN instance and assigned an L3 VXLAN ID. VSI interfaces associated with the same VPN instance share an L3 VXLAN ID.

A border gateway only has VSI interfaces that are associated with an L3 VXLAN ID.

Figure 8 Example of distributed EVPN gateway deployment

Layer 3 forwarding entry learning

A distributed EVPN gateway forwards Layer 3 traffic based on FIB entries generated from BGP EVPN routes and ARP information.

A VTEP advertises an external route imported in the EVPN address family through MP-BGP. A remote VTEP adds the route to the FIB table of a VPN instance based on the L3 VXLAN ID carried in the route. In the FIB entry, the outgoing interface is a VXLAN tunnel interface, and the next hop is the peer VTEP address in the NEXT_HOP attribute of the route.

A VTEP has the following types of ARP information:

· Local ARP information—ARP information of VMs in the local site. The VTEP snoops GARP packets, RARP packets, and ARP requests for the gateway MAC address to learn the ARP information of the senders and generates ARP entries and FIB entries. In an ARP or FIB entry, the outgoing interface is the site-facing interface where the packet is received, and the VPN instance is the instance associated with the corresponding VSI interface.

· Remote ARP information—ARP information of VMs in remote sites. Each VTEP uses MP-BGP to advertise its local ARP information with L3 VXLAN IDs in routes to remote sites. A VTEP generates only FIB entries for the remote ARP information. A FIB entry contains the following information:

¡ Outgoing interface: VSI interface associated with the L3 VXLAN ID.

¡ Next hop: Peer VTEP address in the NEXT_HOP attribute of the route.

¡ VPN instance: VPN instance associated with the L3 VXLAN ID.

The VTEP then creates an ARP entry for the next hop in the FIB entry.

Traffic forwarding

A distributed EVPN gateway can work in one of the following modes:

· Switching and routing mode—Forwards Layer 2 traffic based on the MAC address table and forwards Layer 3 traffic based on the FIB table. In this mode, you need to enable ARP flood suppression on the distributed EVPN gateway to reduce flooding.

· Routing mode— Forwards both Layer 2 and Layer 3 traffic based on the FIB table. In this mode, you need to enable local proxy ARP on the distributed EVPN gateway.

For more information about MAC address table-based Layer 2 forwarding, see "Unicast."

Figure 9 shows the intra-site Layer 3 forwarding process.

1. The source VM sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of the destination VM.

2. The gateway replies to the source VM with the MAC address of the VSI interface associated with the source VM's VSI.

3. The source VM sends a Layer 3 packet to the gateway.

4. The gateway looks up the FIB table of the VPN instance associated with the source VM's VSI and finds the matching outgoing site-facing interface.

5. The gateway processes the Ethernet header of the Layer 3 packet as follows:

¡ Replaces the destination MAC address with the destination VM's MAC address.

¡ Replaces the source MAC address with the VSI interface's MAC address.

6. The gateway forwards the Layer 3 packet to the destination VM.

Figure 9 Intra-site Layer 3 forwarding

Figure 10 shows the inter-site Layer 3 forwarding process.

1. The source VM sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of the destination VM.

2. The gateway replies to the source VM with the MAC address of the VSI interface associated with the source VM's VSI.

3. The source VM sends a Layer 3 packet to the gateway.

4. The gateway looks up the FIB table of the VPN instance associated with the source VM's VSI and finds the matching outgoing VSI interface.

5. The gateway processes the Ethernet header of the Layer 3 packet as follows:

¡ Replaces the destination MAC address with the destination gateway's router MAC address.

¡ Replaces the source MAC address with its own router MAC address.

6. The gateway adds VXLAN encapsulation to the Layer 3 packet and forwards the packet to the destination gateway. The encapsulated VXLAN ID is the L3 VXLAN ID of the corresponding VPN instance.

7. The destination gateway identifies the VPN instance of the packet based on the L3 VXLAN ID and removes the VXLAN encapsulation. Then the gateway forwards the packet based on the matching ARP entry.

Figure 10 Inter-site Layer 3 forwarding

Communication between private and public networks

A distributed EVPN gateway uses the public instance to perform Layer 3 forwarding for the public network and to enable communication between private and public networks. The public instance is similar to a VPN instance. A distributed EVPN gateway processes traffic of the public instance in the same way it does for a VPN instance. For the public instance to work correctly, you must configure an RD, an L3 VXLAN ID, and route targets for it. If a VSI interface is not associated with any VPN instance, the VSI interface belongs to the public instance.

ARP flood suppression

ARP flood suppression reduces ARP request broadcasts by enabling the VTEP to reply to ARP requests on behalf of VMs.

As shown in Figure 11, this feature snoops ARP requests, ARP responses, and BGP EVPN routes to populate the ARP flood suppression table with local and remote MAC addresses. If an ARP request has a matching entry, the VTEP replies to the request on behalf of the VM. If no match is found, the VTEP floods the request to both local and remote sites.

Figure 11 ARP flood suppression

ARP flood suppression uses the following workflow:

1. VM 1 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of VM 7.

2. VTEP 1 creates a suppression entry for VM 1, floods the ARP request in the VXLAN, and sends the suppression entry to VTEP 2 and VTEP 3 through BGP EVPN.

3. VTEP 2 and VTEP 3 de-encapsulate the ARP request and broadcast the request in the local site.

4. VM 7 sends an ARP reply.

5. VTEP 2 creates a suppression entry for VM 7, forwards the ARP reply to VTEP 1, and sends the suppression entry to VTEP 1 and VTEP 3 through BGP EVPN.

6. VTEP 1 de-encapsulates the ARP reply and forwards the ARP reply to VM 1.

7. VM 4 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of VM 1.

8. VTEP 1 creates a suppression entry for VM 4 and replies to the ARP request.

9. VM 10 sends an ARP request to obtain the MAC address of VM 1.

10. VTEP 3 creates a suppression entry for VM 10 and replies to the ARP request.

MAC mobility

MAC mobility refers to the movement of a VM or host from one ES to another. The source VTEP is unaware of the MAC move event. To notify other VTEPs of the change, the destination VTEP advertises a MAC/IP advertisement route for the MAC address. The source VTEP withdraws the old route for the MAC address after receiving the new route. The MAC/IP advertisement route has a sequence number that increases when the MAC address moves. The sequence number identifies the most recent move if the MAC address moves multiple times.

Restrictions and guidelines: VXLAN tunnel assignment

Make sure the following VXLAN tunnels are not associated with the same VXLAN when they have the same tunnel destination IP address:

· A VXLAN tunnel automatically created by EVPN.

· A manually created VXLAN tunnel.

For more information about VXLAN, see VXLAN Configuration Guide.

As a best practice to ensure correct traffic forwarding, configure the same MAC address for all VSI interfaces on an EVPN gateway.

Configuring a distributed EVPN gateway

Restrictions and guidelines for distributed EVPN gateway configuration

Make sure a VSI interface uses the same MAC address to provide service on distributed EVPN gateways connected to IPv4 sites.

For a VXLAN to access the external network, specify the VXLAN's VSI interface on the border gateway as the next hop on distributed EVPN gateways by using one of the following methods:

· Configure a static route.

· Configure a routing policy and apply the policy by using the apply default-next-hop or apply next-hop command. For more information about configuring routing policies, see routing policy configuration in Layer 3—IP Routing Configuration Guide.

If both ARP flood suppression and local proxy ARP are enabled on a distributed EVPN gateway, only local proxy ARP takes effect. As a best practice, do not use these features together on distributed EVPN gateways.

On a distributed EVPN gateway, make sure the VSI interfaces configured with L3 VXLAN IDs use the same MAC address. To modify the MAC address of a VSI interface, use the mac-address command.

Configuring a VSI interface

About this task

To save Layer 3 interface resources on a distributed EVPN gateway, multiple VSIs can share one VSI interface. You can assign multiple IP addresses to the VSI interface for the VSIs to use as gateway addresses. On an IPv4 network, you can assign one primary IP address and multiple secondary IP addresses to the gateway interface.

When VSIs share a VSI interface, you must specify the subnet of each VSI for the VSI interface to identify the VSI of a packet. The subnets must be unique.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

10. Assign a subnet to the VSI.

gateway subnet { ipv4-address wildcard-mask | ipv6-address prefix-length }

By default, no subnet exists on a VSI.

For more information about this command, see VXLAN Command Reference.

Configuring an L3 VXLAN ID for a VSI interface

Restrictions and guidelines for L3 VXLAN ID configuration

The L3 VXLAN ID of a VSI interface cannot be the same as any VXLAN ID specified by using the mapping vni command. For more information about the mapping vni command, see "Configuring EVPN-DCI."

A distributed EVPN gateway uses the following rules to select the router MAC address:

· If a MAC address is manually assigned to a VSI interface configured with an L3 VXLAN ID, the distributed EVPN gateway uses the assigned MAC address as its router MAC address.

· If multiple VSI interfaces with an L3 VXLAN ID are manually assigned MAC addresses, the distributed EVPN gateway uses the MAC address of the lowest-numbered VSI interface as its router MAC address.

· If no VSI interface has an L3 VXLAN ID or a manually assigned MAC address, the distributed EVPN gateway uses its bridge MAC address as the router MAC address.

If the elected router MAC address takes effect on a distributed EVPN gateway, creation of VSI interfaces does not trigger re-election of the router MAC address.

Configuring IP prefix route advertisement

About this task

If IGP routes are imported to the BGP-VPN IPv4 or IPv6 unicast address family and the corresponding VPN instance has an L3 VXLAN ID, the device advertises the imported routes as IP prefix advertisement routes.

If IGP routes are imported to the BGP IPv4 or IPv6 unicast address family and the public instance has an L3 VXLAN ID, the device advertises the imported routes as IP prefix advertisement routes.

A VTEP compares the export route targets of received IP prefix advertisement routes with the import route targets configured for IPv4 VPN or IPv6 VPN on a VPN instance or the public instance. If the route targets match, the VTEP accepts the routes and adds the routes to the routing table of the VPN instance or public instance.

Restrictions and guidelines

This feature is supported only by distributed EVPN gateway deployment.

Managing remote MAC address entries and remote ARP learning

Disabling remote MAC address learning and remote ARP or ND learning

About this task

By default, the device learns MAC information, ARP information, and ND information of remote user terminals from packets received on VXLAN tunnel interfaces. The automatically learned remote MAC, ARP, and ND information might conflict with the remote MAC, ARP, and ND information advertised through BGP. As a best practice to avoid the conflicts, disable remote MAC address learning and remote ARP or ND learning on the device.

For more information about the VXLAN commands in this task, see VXLAN Command Reference.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Disable remote MAC address learning.

vxlan tunnel mac-learning disable

By default, remote MAC address learning is enabled.

3. Disable remote ARP learning.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enter VSI view.

By default, MAC address advertisement is enabled.

Enabling MAC mobility event suppression

About this task

On an EVPN VXLAN network, misconfiguration of MAC addresses might cause two sites to contain the same MAC address. In this condition, VTEPs at the two sites constantly synchronize and update EVPN MAC entries and determine that MAC mobility events occur. As a result, an inter-site loop might occur, and the bandwidth is occupied by MAC entry synchronization traffic. To eliminate loops and suppress those MAC mobility events, enable MAC mobility event suppression on the VTEPs.

The MAC mobility event suppression feature allows a MAC address to move at most the specified number of times (MAC mobility suppression threshold) out of a site within a MAC mobility detection cycle. If the suppression threshold has been reached for a MAC address within a detection cycle, the VTEP at the site suppresses the subsequent move after the MAC address moves back to the site. In addition, the VTEP learns the MAC address but does not advertise it.

Restrictions and guidelines

After you execute the undo evpn route mac-mobility suppression command or when the MAC mobility suppression time expires, a VTEP acts as follows:

· Advertises MAC address entries immediately for the suppressed MAC address entries that have not aged out.

· Relearns the MAC addresses for the suppressed MAC address entries that have aged out and advertises the MAC address entries.

If both MAC address entry conflicts and ARP entry conflicts exist for a MAC address, you must enable both MAC mobility event suppression and ARP mobility event suppression. If you enable only MAC mobility event suppression, the system cannot suppress MAC mobility events for the MAC address.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enable MAC mobility event suppression.

evpn route mac-mobility suppression [ detect-cycle detect-time | detect-threshold move-times | suppression-time [ suppression-time | permanent ] ] *

By default, an EVPN instance learns MAC addresses from ND information.

Disabling ARP information advertisement

About this task

In an EVPN network with distributed gateways, you can disable ARP information advertisement for a VXLAN to save resources if all its user terminals use the same EVPN gateway device. The EVPN instance of the VXLAN will stop advertising ARP information through MAC/IP advertisement routes and withdraw advertised ARP information. When ARP information advertisement is disabled, user terminals in other VXLANs still can communicate with that VXLAN through IP prefix advertisement routes.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enter VSI view.

vsi vsi-name

3. Enter EVPN instance view.

evpn encapsulation vxlan

4. Disable ARP information advertisement for the EVPN instance.

By default, ARP information advertisement is enabled for an EVPN instance.

Enabling ARP mobility event suppression

About this task

On an EVPN VXLAN network, misconfiguration of IP addresses might cause two sites to contain the same IP address. In this condition, VTEPs at the two sites constantly synchronize and update EVPN ARP entries and determine that ARP mobility events occur. As a result, an inter-site loop might occur, and the bandwidth is occupied by ARP entry synchronization traffic. To eliminate loops and suppress those ARP mobility events, enable ARP mobility event suppression on the VTEPs.

The ARP mobility event suppression feature allows an IP address to move at most the specified number of times (ARP mobility suppression threshold) out of a site within an ARP mobility detection cycle. If the suppression threshold has been reached for an IP address within a detection cycle, the VTEP at the site suppresses the subsequent move after the IP address moves back to the site. In addition, the VTEP learns ARP information for the IP address but does not advertise the ARP information.

Restrictions and guidelines

· Advertises ARP information immediately for the suppressed ARP entries that have not aged out.

· Relearns ARP information for the suppressed ARP entries that have aged out and advertises the ARP information.

ARP mobility event suppression takes effect only on the following EVPN VXLAN networks:

· EVPN VXLAN network enabled with ARP flood suppression.

· EVPN VXLAN network configured with distributed VXLAN IP gateways.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

Confining floods to the local site

About this task

By default, the VTEP floods broadcast, unknown unicast, and unknown multicast frames received from the local site to the following interfaces in the frame's VXLAN:

· All site-facing interfaces except for the incoming interface.

· All VXLAN tunnel interfaces.

To confine a kind of flood traffic to the site-facing interfaces, disable flooding for that kind of flood traffic on the VSI bound to the VXLAN. The VSI will not flood the corresponding frames to VXLAN tunnel interfaces.

For more information about the VXLAN commands in this task, see VXLAN Command Reference.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enter VSI view.

vsi vsi-name

3. Disable flooding for the VSI.

flooding disable all

By default, flooding is enabled for a VSI.

Enabling ARP flood suppression

About this task

Use ARP flood suppression to reduce ARP request broadcasts.

The aging timer is fixed at 25 minutes for ARP flood suppression entries. If the flooding disable command is configured, set the MAC aging timer to a higher value than the aging timer for ARP flood suppression entries on all VTEPs. This setting prevents the traffic blackhole that occurs when a MAC address entry ages out before its ARP flood suppression entry ages out. To set the MAC aging timer, use the mac-address timer command.

When remote ARP learning is disabled for VXLANs, the device does not use ARP flood suppression entries to respond to ARP requests received on VXLAN tunnels.

Procedure

1. Enter system view.

system-view

2. Enter VSI view.

vsi vsi-name

3. Enable ARP flood suppression.

arp suppression enable

By default, ARP flood suppression is disabled.
