Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

In the anycast VXLAN scenario, the dual-homed PEs must have the same VTEP address. As a result, the dual-homed PEs cannot use the VTEP address to establish a VXLAN tunnel, causing a traffic forwarding failure. To resolve the problem, run the bypass-vxlan enable command to enable inter-chassis VXLAN on the PEs and configure different bypass addresses for the PEs. In this way, the PEs can use the bypass addresses to establish VXLAN tunnels for traffic forwarding.

Example

# Enable the inter-chassis VXLAN function.

<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] evpn
