Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To fully use advantages of server virtualization, you can deploy VXLAN to connect to multiple tenants. VXLAN tunnel information needs to be configured on an NVE interface, so the interface nve command needs to be executed to create the NVE interface.

Precautions

After a VXLAN tunnel is configured, running the undo interface nve command will delete the specified NVE interface and all the configuration of the NVE interface.

Example

# Create an NVE interface.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[HUAWEI] interface nve 1
