Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

To enable distributed gateway on a VBDIF interface and allow the gateway to learn only user-side ARP, ND, or DHCP packets, run the

vxlan anycast-gateway enable command. After distributed gateway is enabled, the gateway:

  • Processes only received user-side ARP, ND, or DHCP packets and generates host routes accordingly.
  • Deletes network-side ARP, ND, or DHCP entries already learned and deletes the corresponding host routes.

Configuration Impact

After distributed gateway is enabled:

  • VXLAN tunnel-side static ARP, ND, or DHCP entries cannot be configured on the gateway.
  • If distributed gateways have the same IP address, they do not report ARP, ND, or DHCP conflicts.
  • If ARP proxy is not enabled but the network-side devices and user-side hosts have the same IP address, the gateways do not report IP address conflict alarms.

Example

# Enable distributed gateway on VBDIF 10.
<HUAWEI> system-view
[~HUAWEI] bridge-domain 10
[*HUAWEI-bd10] quit
[*HUAWEI] interface vbdif 10
[*HUAWEI-Vbdif10] vxlan anycast-gateway enable
