Are you referring to the Ethernet MAC addresses that the VTEP probably
has on its underlay physical network? I can see why those would be good
candidates to use on the management VNI. What I do not see is why we
want to require it? Using those would seem to complicate configuring
BFD, since as far as I know those addresses are not known to remote VTEPs.

While I agree that there are no tenant MACs on a management VNI, I'm
loathe to introduce another forwarding behavior, one that's
VNI-specific. MUST use a MAC thats owned by the VTEP is all that's
required. All VTEPs, existing and past work with this, because that's
the VTEP decapsulate and forward behavior.

Anoop, I think I at least am misunderstanding you. If one is using the
management VNI, as I understand it there is no tenant. So there are no
tenant MAC addresses. (This is one of the reasons I like using the
management VNI.) Yours, Joel On 11/3/2019 10:32 PM, Anoop Ghanwani wrote:
