Configuring the Cisco ASR 1000 Routers as a VxLAN Layer 2 Gateway with Multicast
DETAILED STEPS
Creating the Network Virtualization Endpoint (NVE) Interface
You create the network virtualization endpoint (NVE) interface and then assign member virtual network
identifiers (VNIs) to it. The mapping between the VNI range and the multicast group range is either
one-to-one or many-to-one.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. interface nve number
2. source-interface loopback loopback interface
3. member vni range multicast-group range-group-address
4. no shutdown
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
enable
Example:
router> enable
Enables privileged EXEC mode.
Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2

Step 3
vxlan udp port number
Example:
Router(config)# vxlan udp port 1000
Configures the VxLAN UDP destination port number. The
default value is 8472.
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
interface nve number
Example:
Router(config)# interface nve 1
Creates a network virtualization endpoint (NVE) interface
and enters NVE interface configuration mode.
Step 2
source-interface loopback number
Example:
Router(config-if)# source-interface loopback 0
Assigns the previously-created loopback interface to the
NVE interface.
