This chapter contains examples of VXLAN Eline xConnect using single-homed and multi-homed topologies.

Vxlan Eline xConnect is a mechanism for a point-to-point tunnel for data and control packets from one leaf to another. It helps in achieving pseudowire between two endpoints. Since there are only two endpoints in this, there is no need for MAC learning and hence the differentiation of Unicast/Broadcast-Unicast-Multicast traffic is not seen. Inner Tags are preserved and VXLAN encapsulated within the outer VNID which is specified as the Xconnect VNID.
