Abstract:
Examples of the present disclosure provide a packet forwarding method and apparatus applied to a VXLAN. In examples of the present disclosure, redundancy protection for a VXLAN IP gateway is realized by deploying a VXLAN IP gateway group in a VXLAN, and a first VTEP in the VXLAN can ensure each VXLAN IP gateway in the VXLAN IP gateway group to learn an ARP entry of a same VM by establishing a VXLAN control tunnel from the first VTEP to each VXLAN IP gateway of the VXLAN IP gateway group and establishing a VXLAN data tunnel from the first VTEP to the VXLAN IP gateway group, thus ensuring the VXLAN IP gateway correctly forwards the service packet.

Claim (Index 8):
The apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the first VTEP comprises N tunnel ports associated with the VXLAN data tunnel;\n the packet unit is further to perform following operations to transmit the ARP packet via the VXLAN data tunnel: perform a VXLAN encapsulation to the ARP packet according to the VXLAN data tunnel, select one tunnel port from the N tunnel ports to forward the VXLAN encapsulated ARP packet.
