VXLAN IRB
 
Symptom/Cause
Solution
"l3vnid <value>" is not successful
Ensure that the VXLAN IRB is enabled.
(config)# nvo vxlan irb
"evpn <irb_interface>" is not successful
Ensure that the IRB interface which you are trying to map is configured. Use the below command to configure.
(config)# interface irb 1
(config-if)# ip vrf vrf1
Ensure that ip vrf forwarding <vrf-name> (VRF should have L3VNID) is configured in the IRB interface which you are trying to map to the L2VNID.
Use the below command to configure.
(config)# ip vrf vrf1
(config-vrf)# l3vni 12001
IRB interface is DOWN
Ensure that IRB interface is not administratively shut down.
Ensure that IRB interface is mapped to the L2 VNID.
Use the show command to verify the IRB - L2 VNI mapping "show nvo vxlan l3vni-mp"
 
If not use the below command to configure.
(config)#nvo vxlan id 10 ingress-replication inner-vid-disabled
(config-nvo)#evpn irb1
 
L3 Tunnel installation is unsuccessful.
Ensure that Prefix routes are installed in the VRF (VRF should have L3 VNID) Routing Table.
#show ip route vrf <vrf_name>
#show arp vrf <vrf_name>
#show nvo vxlan
Missing routes in the VRF routing table.
Both connected and static.
Ensure that IRB interfaces are UP and running.
Ensure that L3 Tunnel is UP and Running.
Ensure that "redistribute connected" is configured in the VRF address family to advertise the connected route.
Ensure that "redistribute static" is configured in the VRF address family to advertise the static route.
Ensure that if route is inactive in VRF routing database, then check that ARP resolution is successful for the next-hop for those routes.
Symmetric Config:
L3 traffic not flowing from one VNID to another VNID
Ensure that all the interfaces are up and running including the IRB interfaces.
Ensure that ARP of that Host is resolved and added in "show arp vrf <vrf-table>" for both Local and Remote Host.
Ensure that destination routes are installed on the source VTEP using "show ip bgp vrf all" and "show ip route vrf all".
Asymmetric Config:
L3 traffic not flowing from one VNID to another VNID
Ensure that all the interfaces are up and running including the IRB interfaces.
Ensure that ARP of that Host is resolved and added in "show arp vrf <vrf-table>" for both Local and Remote Host.
