The following shows BUM traffic replication in the controller-provisioned VXLAN environment: Since VTEP relies on service nodes to replicate BUM traffic, we need a mechanism to monitor the connectivity between the VTEP and the service nodes. BFD can be used monitors the connectivity between the VTEP and service nodes, and detects failures. The NSX controller provides parameters, such as the minimum TX and RX interval, and the multiplier, to initiate the BFD session between the VTEP and the service nodes. To establish a BFD session, enable the BFD on both the controller and the VTEP. To enable BFD in the VTEP, use bfd enable command. NOTE: In controller-provisioned VXLAN, the VTEP establishes a BFD session with the service nodes using the controllerprovided parameters instead of the parameters configured at the VTEP. If BFD is not enabled in the VTEP, the VTEP uses IP reachability information to monitor connectivity to the service node. To view established sessions, use the show bfd neighbors command.
