• Configure the NSX controller in VMware vCenter. For more information about configuring the NSX controller using the GUI, see the

Configure and control VXLAN from the VMware vCenter.

You must configure an OS10 VTEP with the controller configuration so that the VTEP can communicate with the NSX controller. The NSX

controller handles configurations and control plane operations in the VXLAN environment.

VTEP 1

1. Configure the OSPF protocol in the underlay.

OS10# configure terminal

OS10(config)# router ospf 1

OS10(config)# exit

OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/55:1

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/55:1)# no switchport

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/55:1)# ip ospf 1 area 0.0.0.0

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/55:1)# exit

2. Configure a Loopback interface.

OS10(config)# interface loopback 1

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# no shutdown

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# ip address 200.0.0.1/32

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# exit

3. Create an NVE instance and configure the Loopback interface as the VXLAN source tunnel interface.

OS10(config)# nve

OS10(config-nve)# source-interface loopback 1

4. Specify the NSX controller reachability information.

OS10(config-nve)# controller ovsdb

OS10(config-nve-ovsdb)# ip 10.16.140.182 port 6640 ssl

OS10(config-nve-ovsdb)# max-backoff 10000

OS10(config-nve-ovsdb)# exit

5. Assign interfaces to be managed by the controller.

OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/54:3

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/54:3)# switchport mode trunk

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/54:3)# no switchport access vlan

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/54:3)# nve-controller

6. (Optional) Enable BFD.

OS10(config)# bfd enable

VTEP 2

1. Configure the OSPF protocol in the underlay.

OS10# configure terminal

OS10(config)# router ospf 1

OS10(config)# exit

OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/23:1

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/23:1)# no switchport

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/23:1)# ip ospf 1 area 0.0.0.0

OS10(config-if-eth1/1/23:1)# exit

2. Configure a Loopback interface.

OS10(config)# interface loopback 1

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# no shutdown

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# ip address 202.0.0.1/32

OS10(config-if-lo-1)# exit
