Figure 11 Distributed VXLAN IP gateway placement design
shows an example of distributed VXLAN IP gateway deployment. This section uses this
figure to describe the forwarding processes for intra-VXLAN traffic, inter-VXLAN traffic, and traffic
from a VXLAN to an external network. In these processes, VTEPs use dynamically learned ARP
entries.
