VxLAN | Part 5 - Bridging Configuration
- 6 years ago
Welcome to part 5, where we start on the real configuration.
In this tutorial video, we’ll move beyond the fundamentals and have a configuration technical deep dive, with VTEPs, multicast (for BUM traffic), #OSPF in the underlay, VNI’s and encapsulation (tunnels) in the overlay, all on real Cisco Nexus (NX OS) 9000 switches.
In short, this lab covers how to configure and troubleshoot VxLAN flood and learn. This also further illustrates bridging vs routing with #VxLAN.
Did you know that VTEPs are not called VTEPs on a #Nexus switch? They use a special interface called an NVE. This takes its IP address from a loopback interface.

Part 1: Fundamentals - An introduction or primer into the basic concepts and terminology. For example, VxLAN vs VLAN, and host vs gateway. https://youtu.be/YNqKDI_bnPM
Part 2: Header Format - Follow the packet flow to see the headers added to a frame. https://youtu.be/jjr8aIIRkYc
Part 3: Spine Leaf Topology - Looks at the hierarchical architecture, and compares it to the newer spine leaf topology. https://youtu.be/x1F-RCW9fqo
Part 4: Address Learning - BUM traffic, data plane or control plane learning, multicast, and ingress replication. https://youtu.be/Do6G9w_DjJ4
Part 5: Bridging Configuration - A technical deep dive into flood-and-learn (bridging) and multicast configuration on Cisco Nexus 9000 switches.

Part 6: BGP EVPN Configuration - A technical deep dive into control plane learning (BGP EVPN) and Ingress replication configuration on Cisco Nexus 9000 switches.
