session between the VTEP and the service nodes. To establish a BFD session, enable the BFD on the controller and the VTEP.
To enable BFD in the VTEP, use bfd enable command.
NOTE: In controller-provisioned VXLAN, the VTEP establishes a BFD session with the service nodes using the controller-
provided parameters instead of the parameters configured at the VTEP.
If BFD is not enabled in the VTEP, the VTEP uses IP reachability information to monitor connectivity to the service node.
To view established sessions, use the show bfd neighbors command.

Configure and control VXLAN from VMware vCenter
You can configure and control VXLAN from the VMware vCenter GUI. Complete the following steps:
1. On an OS10 switch, generate an SSL certificate in CONFIGURATION mode.
OS10# nve controller ssl-key-generate
Verify or view the certificate using the show nve controller ssl-certificate command.
OS10# show nve controller ssl-certificate
