Configuring VXLAN Stripping

Configure this feature to strip all incoming IPv4/IPv6 VxLAN traffic.

This feature is supported only on NVIDIA spectrum-2/3 platforms

Restrictions

• The source-IP in tunnel configuration & dest-IP in flow rule configuration should be the same for VxLAN stripping to work.

• The dest-mac in the flow rule configuration should be the system-mac of the switch, this can be retrieved using the "show platform syseeprom" command.

• The strip-vxlan interface in the tunnel configuration should be a configured as logical loopback.
• A physical loopback is required between egress-interface from the tunnel and the tool port as Egress interface for Inner Tagged Vlan.

Flow-based IP-Swap Configuration

Use the below command to configure the flow to swap the MAC & the IP address of incoming traffic:

Reference

Command	flow <name> network-ports <port> tool-ports <tunnel> rule <to wap IP & MAC>
Description	Add flow
Parameters	description Configure description for flow enable Enable the flow end Exit to Exec Prompt exit Exit from the Current Prompt network-ports Configure network or TAP ports no no form rule Configure rule tool-ports Configure network tool or analyzer ports
Mode	FLOW

Example

pbnoscli(config)# flow swap
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# network-ports Ethernet1/1
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# tool-ports Ethernet50/1
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 5 permit protocol 58 counters enable
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 5 action override-to cpu
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 6 permit match-all counters enable
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 6 action overwrite dest-ip 10.10.10.1 dest-mac 1c:34:da:23:77:00 dest-port 4789
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 7 permit match-all ipv6 counters enable
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# rule 7 action overwrite dest-mac 1c:34:da:23:77:00 dest-port 4789
pbnoscli(config-flow-swap)# end
pbnoscli#

A Physical loop is required from the tunnel1-egress_interface (Ethernet41/1) to Tool port to (Ethernet42/1) egress interface for Tagged inner Vlan .

Tunnel Configuration

Reference

Command	tunnel <tunnelname> no tunnel <tunnelname>
Description	Create tunnel
Parameters	Tunnelname
Mode	CONFIG

Example

pbnoscli(config)# tunnel tunnel1
pbnoscli(config)# no tunnel tunnel1

Tunnel Attributes

Use the below command to configure the tunnel attributes:

Tunnel attributes cannot be modified directly. To make changes, delete the existing tunnel and configure a new one.

Reference

Command	[no] tunnel <tunnel-name>
Description	Create tunnel
Parameters	comment: Configure comment for tunnel decap-vxlan: Enable Tunnel to decap VXLAN packet destined to the device destination-ip: Destination IP address gateway: Gateway IPv4 Address ingress-interface: Configure tunnel port source-ip: Source IP address source-port: Tunnel Source Port strip-vxlan: Enable Tunnel to STRIP all the incoming VXLAN packet vlan-tagging: Tunnel VLAN Tagging vni: VXLAN network identifier
Mode	TUNNEL

Example

pbnoscli(config)# tunnel tunnel1
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# ingress-interface Ethernet50/1
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# strip-vxlan egress Ethernet41/1
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# source-ip 10.10.10.1
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# destination-ip 10.10.10.2
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# vni 4098
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# vlan-tagging disable
pbnoscli(config-tunnel-tunnel1)# 

Flow-Based Egress Configuration

Use the below command to configure the flow to egress the stripped traffic

Reference

Command	flow <name> network-ports <port> tool-ports <port> rule 1 permit match all rule 2 permit match-all ipv6
Description	Add flow
Parameters	description Configure description for flow enable Enable the flow end Exit to Exec Prompt exit Exit from the Current Prompt network-ports Configure network or TAP ports no no form rule Configure rule tool-ports Configure network tool or analyzer ports
Mode	FLOW

Example

pbnoscli(config)# flow egress
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# network-ports Ethernet42/1
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# tool-ports Ethernet64/1
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# rule 10 permit match-all counters enable
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# rule 20 permit match-all ipv6 counters enable
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# rule 20 action override-to Ethernet64/1
pbnoscli(config-flow-egress)# end
pbnoscli#

Show VXLAN Tunnel Command

You can display the Vxlan tunnel configurations using this command.

Reference

Command	vxlan ("VxLAN Tunnel") tunnel ("Tunnel Information") (all ("Displays all VXLAN Tunnel configuration") | ("Displays specific VXLAN Tunnel configuration") <tunnelid:string length[10]> ("Tunnel Name")),
Description	Displays VXLAN tunnel

Example

pbnoscli# show vxlan tunnel all
