Policy to Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) Mapping

ExtremeXOS 22.5 allows you to create Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN)-to-policy mappings by applying the VXLAN identifier (VNI) to a profile (where NSI = VNI). Network Service Identifier (NSI) provides a mechanism to apply the VXLAN/NSI mappings in policy using a profile-based attribute. NSI is a 24-bit value ranging from 1 to 16,777,215, where none (default) indicating no NSI for the VXLAN.

The maptable response can be configured to apply policy in the following ways:
  • Policy: VLAN/NSI mappings from policy profile are used if present. Mappings in RADIUS response are ignored.
  • Tunnel: VLAN/NSI mappings from RADIUS are used if present. Mappings in policy profile are ignored.
  • Both: VLAN/NSI mappings from either RADIUS or policy profile may be used. However, mappings in RADIUS response have a higher precedence over policy profile when both contain mappings.
