OVSDB-VXLAN User Guide for QFX Series Switches (VMware NSX)
The Open vSwitch Database (OVSDB) management protocol provides a control plane through which QFX Series switches in the physical underlay can exchange control and statistical information with VMware NSX controllers in the virtual overlay. Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) provides a data plane through which Layer 2 data packets can be tunneled over a Layer 3 transport network. Use this guide to learn how OVSDB-VXLAN is implemented on QFX Series switches and to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot OVSDB-VXLAN on these Juniper Networks devices.
You can also use this guide to learn about and configure manual VXLAN, which enables you to manually create VXLANs on QFX Series switches instead of using a controller. If you use this approach, you must also configure Protocol Independent Multicast (PIM), which enables two QFX Series switches to create VXLAN tunnels between themselves.
