Parameters
mac-address: Specifies a MAC address in H-H-H format. Do not specify a multicast MAC address or an all-zeros MAC address. You can omit the consecutive zeros at the beginning of each segment. For example, you can enter f-e2-1 for 000f-00e2-0001.
interface tunnel tunnel-number: Specifies a VXLAN tunnel interface by its tunnel interface number. The value range for the tunnel-number argument is 0 to 1023.
vsi vsi-name: Specifies a VSI name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
Usage guidelines
A remote MAC address is the MAC address of a VM in a remote site. Remote MAC entries can be manually added or dynamically learned.
When you add a remote MAC address entry, make sure the specified VSI's VXLAN has been assigned the specified VXLAN tunnel.
The undo mac-address static vsi vsi-name command removes all static MAC address entries for a VSI.

Parameters
tunnel-number: Specifies a tunnel interface number. The value range for this argument is 0 to 1023. The tunnel must be a VXLAN tunnel.
flooding-proxy: Enables flood proxy on the tunnel for the VTEP to send flood traffic to the flood proxy server. The flood proxy server replicates and forwards flood traffic to remote VTEPs. If you do not specify this keyword, flood proxy is disabled on the tunnel.
Usage guidelines
This command assigns a VXLAN tunnel to a VXLAN to provide Layer 2 connectivity for the VXLAN between two sites. In unicast mode, the system floods unknown unicast, multicast, and broadcast traffic to each tunnel in the VXLAN.
You can assign multiple VXLAN tunnels to a VXLAN, and configure a VXLAN tunnel to trunk multiple VXLANs.
On a VSI, you can enable flood proxy on multiple VXLAN tunnels. The first tunnel that is enabled with flood proxy works as the primary proxy tunnel to forward broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic. Other proxy tunnels are backups that do not forward traffic when the primary proxy tunnel is operating correctly.
To change a flood proxy tunnel for a VXLAN, perform the following tasks:
· Use the undo tunnel command to remove the flood proxy tunnel.
· Use the tunnel command to enable flood proxy on another tunnel and assign the tunnel to the VXLAN.
Examples
# Assign VXLAN tunnels 1 and 2 to VXLAN 10000.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vsi vpna
[Sysname-vsi-vpna] vxlan 10000

Usage guidelines
VXLAN fast forwarding enables the device to bypass QoS and security services when the device forwards data traffic over VXLAN tunnels based on the software. As a best practice, enable this feature to improve forwarding speed only when QoS and security services are not configured on the following interfaces:
· VSI interfaces.
· Traffic outgoing interfaces for VXLAN tunnels.
When VXLAN fast forwarding is enabled, a VXLAN tunnel cannot use ECMP routes to load share traffic. Instead, it selects one route from the ECMP routes to forward VXLAN packets.
Examples
# Enable VXLAN fast forwarding.
<Sysname> system
[Sysname] vxlan fast-forwarding enable

Usage guidelines
When the local-MAC logging feature is enabled, the VXLAN module immediately sends a log message with its local MAC addresses to the information center. When a local MAC address is added or removed, a log message is also sent to the information center to notify the local-MAC change.
With the information center, you can set log message filtering and output rules, including output destinations. For more information about configuring the information center, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.

Parameters
vsi-name: Specifies the VSI name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
track track-entry-number&<1-3>: Specifies a space-separated list of up to three track entry numbers in the range of 1 to 1024. The AC is up only if a minimum of one associated track entry is in positive state.
Usage guidelines
For traffic that matches a Layer 3 interface, the system uses the VSI's MAC address table to make a forwarding decision.
After you modify the access mode on a Layer 3 subinterface AC, local VMs that access the VXLAN network through the subinterface cannot communicate with remote VMs. To resolve this issue, you must clear the ARP entries on the local VMs or configure them to periodically send gratuitous ARP packets.
Examples
# Map GigabitEthernet 1/2/5/1 to VSI vpn1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vsi vpn1

Usage guidelines
When local proxy ARP is enabled on distributed VXLAN IP gateways, each gateway learns ARP information independently. A gateway does not forward ARP packets destined for its local VSI interfaces to other gateways. For distributed VXLAN IP gateways to have the same ARP entries, you must enable dynamic ARP entry synchronization.
A controller can also synchronize ARP entries among distributed VXLAN IP gateways. When you use a controller, do not enable dynamic ARP entry synchronization.
Examples
# Enable dynamic ARP entry synchronization for distributed VXLAN IP gateways.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] arp distributed-gateway dynamic-entry synchronize

Usage guidelines
If a VXLAN uses distributed gateway services, you must assign the same IP address to the VXLAN's VSI interfaces on different VTEPs. To avoid IP address conflicts, you must specify the VSI interface on each VTEP as a distributed gateway.
Examples
# Specify VSI-interface 100 as a distributed gateway.

Parameters
ipv4-address: Specifies an IPv4 subnet address in dotted-decimal notation.
wildcard-mask: Specifies a wildcard mask in dotted decimal notation. In contrast to a network mask, the 0 bits in a wildcard mask represent "do care" bits, and the 1 bits represent "don't care" bits. If the "do care" bits in a packet's IP address are identical to the "do care" bits in the specified subnet address, the packet is assigned to the VSI. All "don't care" bits are ignored. The 0s and 1s in a wildcard mask can be noncontiguous. For example, 0.255.0.255 is a valid wildcard mask.
ipv6-address prefix-length: Specifies an IPv6 subnet address and the address prefix length in the range of 1 to 128.
Usage guidelines
You must configure this command on VSIs that share a gateway interface. This command enables the VSI interface to identify the VSI of a packet.
You can assign a maximum of eight IPv4 and IPv6 subnets to a VSI.
You must specify a gateway interface for a VSI before you can assign subnets to the VSI. If you remove the gateway interface from the VSI, the VSI's subnet settings are automatically deleted.
For VSIs that share a gateway interface, the subnets must be unique.
Examples
# Assign subnet 100.0.10.0/24 to VSI vxlan.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vsi vxlan
[Sysname-vsi-vxlan] gateway subnet 100.0.10.0 0.0.0.255

Usage guidelines
By default, the device learns ARP information of remote VMs from packets received on VXLAN tunnel interfaces. To save resources on VTEPs in an SDN transport network, you can temporarily disable remote ARP learning when the controller and VTEPs are synchronizing entries. After the entry synchronization is completed, use the undo vxlan tunnel arp-learning disable command to enable remote ARP learning.
As a best practice, disable remote ARP learning for VXLANs only when the controller and VTEPs are synchronizing entries.
Examples
# Disable remote ARP learning for VXLANs.
<Sysname> system
[Sysname] vxlan tunnel arp-learning disable
