VMware vCloud Director 5.1 Evaluation Guide

VXLAN Preparation

VXLAN provides capabilities to dynamically create thousands of networks on top of an existing network

infrastructure as well as create a stretched layer 2 domain across clusters that might reside in dierent networks.

To use VXLAN with vCloud Director, the VXLAN fabric ﬁrst must be prepared. Before continuing, ensure that

your network is capable of supporting multicast packets and that there is a DNS server accessible.

Connect to the vCenter Server instance you deployed earlier to be used by vCloud Director with the vSphere Client.

Select the datacenter object in the left-hand pane. You will notice a new tab in the right-hand pane labeled

Network Virtualization. Select this tab and click the Preparation link. There are two steps in the preparation of

the VXLAN fabric: deﬁning the connectivity and deﬁning the segment IDs. These two options are displayed after

you have clicked the Preparation link. Select the Connectivity tab and click the Edit button.

This brings up a window that enables you to select the clusters that will use the VXLAN fabric. Select both of the

clusters and the Distributed Switch that you created earlier when you prepared the vCenter Server. If you must

specify a VLAN ID, do this as well. Click Next to continue.
