    Abstract: Presented herein are techniques to detect a misconfigured duplicate Internet Protocol (IP) address in a distributed data center network fabric. A network topology is provided that includes a plurality of network elements. A network element receives a configuration message comprising an IP address from a first host associated with the first network element. The IP address is detected to already be in use by a second host associated with a second network element. A request message is provided to the second network element, the request message configured to cause the second network element to attempt to contact the second host. A reply message is received from the second network element. If the reply message indicates that the second host exists at the second network element, an indication of a misconfiguration event is generated. Otherwise, the IP address is associated with the first host.

    Abstract: Presented herein are techniques to handle data packets received at a top-of-rack (ToR) switch in an underlay network hosting one or more tenant networks. The underlay network may comprise a plurality of ToR switches each connected to each of a plurality of spine switches. The data packet may be received from a virtual machine in a tenant network, and have a header with a data packet identifier. A mobility domain identifier may be determined that corresponds to the network portion within which the virtual machine can be migrated. The mobility domain may be configured on the ToR switch on a per-port basis based on the virtual machine connected to the ToR switch port. A unique identifier may be formed based on the data packet identifier and mobility domain identifier. Using this unique identifier, provisioning information may be obtained for the tenant network on the ToR switch.

    Abstract: An example method for implementation of virtual extensible local area network (VXLAN) in top-of-rack (ToR) switches in a network environment is provided and includes receiving a packet encapsulated with a VXLAN header having an unknown virtual tunnel endpoint (VTEP) Internet Protocol (IP) address in a network environment, and installing an entry at an index location of a forwarding table. The index location includes an encoding of the VTEP-IP address as a VTEP index (VTEP-IDX), and the entry maps a VXLAN interface to an IP address associated with a VXLAN network interface (VNI). In specific embodiments, the VTEP-IDX is logN bits, where N is a size of the forwarding table. The forwarding table indicates a destination VTEP IP address when encapsulating the packet, and the source VTEP IP address when decapsulating the packet.
