Summary
VXLAN (Virtual Extensible LAN) encapsulates Layer 2 Ethernet frames within Layer 3 packets, creating a Layer 2 network over a Layer 3 infrastructure. It acts as a virtual switch, interconnecting routers and all devices connected to them into an extended Layer 2 network, enhancing scalability and flexibility.
In this configuration example, three methods to configure a VXLAN tunnel between two Teltonika devices will be demonstrated.
Prerequisites
- Two routers with installed VXLAN packages, will refer to these as RUT1 and RUT2
- End device like Laptop or Mobile Phone
- Two Public IP addresses for configuring VXLAN over the Mobile network
- One Public IP address for configuring VXLAN over the VPN tunnel
