Configuring VXLAN BGP EVPN
BGP EVPN and Overlay Configuration
The following BGP, EVPN and overlay configurations are required for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series and 7700
Series switches with F3 and M3 modules:
1 Initial configuration - Install the network virtualization overlay, BGP, and EVPN features on the VTEPs.
2 Layer 2 VNI configurations for tenant networks within a tenant.
(This configuration is applicable only to F3 modules).
3 Layer 3 VNI configurations for a tenant.
Note
Though configuration examples are mainly IPv4, IPv6 addresses are also supported in the VXLAN EVPN
fabric.
Cisco NX-OS Release 7.2(0)D1(1) supported only the border spine functionality. Cisco NX-OS Release
7.3(0)DX(1) supports the Cisco Nexus 7000 leaf functionality for F3 modules.
