Add or delete a VXLAN Tunnel.
VXLAN provides the features needed to allow L2 bridge domains (BDs) to span multiple servers. This is done by building an L2 overlay on top of an L3 network underlay using VXLAN tunnels.
This makes it possible for servers to be co-located in the same data center or be separated geographically as long as they are reachable through the underlay L3 network.
You can refer to this kind of L2 overlay bridge domain as a VXLAN (Virtual eXtensible VLAN) segment.

Example of how to create a VXLAN Tunnel with a known name, vxlan_tunnel42: vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 10.0.3.1 dst 10.0.3.3 instance 42
Example of how to create a multicast VXLAN Tunnel with a known name, vxlan_tunnel23: vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 10.0.3.1 group 239.1.1.1 GigabitEthernet0/8/0 instance 23
Example of how to delete a VXLAN Tunnel: vpp# create vxlan tunnel src 10.0.3.1 dst 10.0.3.3 vni 13 del

set interface ip vxlan-bypass <interface> [del].
This command adds the 'ip4-vxlan-bypass' graph node for a given interface. By adding the IPv4 vxlan-bypass graph node to an interface, the node checks for and validate input vxlan packet and bypass ip4-lookup, ip4-local, ip4-udp-lookup nodes to speedup vxlan packet forwarding. This node will cause extra overhead to for non-vxlan packets which is kept at a minimum.
Example of graph node before ip4-vxlan-bypass is enabled:
vpp# show vlib graph ip4-vxlan-bypass
Name Next Previous ip4-vxlan-bypass error-drop [0] vxlan4-input [1] ip4-lookup [2]
Example of how to enable ip4-vxlan-bypass on an interface:
vpp# set interface ip vxlan-bypass GigabitEthernet2/0/0
Example of graph node after ip4-vxlan-bypass is enabled:
vpp# show vlib graph ip4-vxlan-bypass
Name Next Previous ip4-vxlan-bypass error-drop [0] ip4-input vxlan4-input [1] ip4-input-no-checksum ip4-lookup [2]
Example of how to display the feature enabled on an interface:
vpp# show ip interface features GigabitEthernet2/0/0
IP feature paths configured on GigabitEthernet2/0/0... ... ipv4 unicast: ip4-vxlan-bypass ip4-lookup ...
Example of how to disable ip4-vxlan-bypass on an interface:
vpp# set interface ip vxlan-bypass GigabitEthernet2/0/0 del

set interface ip vxlan-bypass <interface> [del].
This command adds the 'ip6-vxlan-bypass' graph node for a given interface. By adding the IPv6 vxlan-bypass graph node to an interface, the node checks for and validate input vxlan packet and bypass ip6-lookup, ip6-local, ip6-udp-lookup nodes to speedup vxlan packet forwarding. This node will cause extra overhead to for non-vxlan packets which is kept at a minimum.
Example of graph node before ip6-vxlan-bypass is enabled:

Example of how to enable ip6-vxlan-bypass on an interface:
