Abstract
In one example, a virtual local area network (VLAN) tagged packet may be received from a first virtual machine (VM) running on a first host via a port group that spans across hosts by a first virtual bridge of a first VLAN-aware VM. The first VLAN-aware VM may run on the first host. The VLAN tagged packet from the first VM may be translated to a virtual extensible local area network (VXLAN) encapsulated packet by the first virtual bridge based on a network property of a VM port of the first VM. The VXLAN encapsulated packet may be transmitted to a second VM running on a second host by the first virtual bridge via a VXLAN tunnel endpoint (VTEP) provided by the first VLAN-aware VM.
