Considering this video is back by 5 years, its probably one of the best videos I have watched in regards to NSX and its components. Thanks so much for posting.
ua-cam.com/video/LiIJvbRWTJY/v-deo.html I have one question if VTEP is not aware of the destination IP mac ID , you said that it will talk to the controller VM's , in this sense it should be a unicast ARP to controller right ? In a scenario if controller is not aware of the MAC-ID what should be the behavior ? does it do a broadcast , if yes is it VTEP ?
+Hari PR Hari, My understanding is, If VTEP is not aware of the destination IP mac ID , you said that it will talk to the controller VM's , in this sense it should be a unicast ARP to controller right ? Yes. In a scenario if controller is not aware of the MAC-ID what should be the behavior ? does it do a broadcast , if yes is it VTEP ? If the controller is not aware of the MAC , It would send a unicast ARP to all the VTEPs which have the VNI with at least one active host. the controller will learn the MAC when the VTEP containing the destination mac replies to the ARP. this will then be sent back as a unicast to the originating VTEP requesting the ARP, the next packets would directly flows between the VTEPs and not need the controller.

Covers a lot of ground on NSX and has been worthwhile for me to go through it several times.
