Abstract
A host computer and method for multicasting data between networking interfaces of hypervisors in a distributed computer system uses a Virtual Extensible LAN Network Identifier (VNI) assigned to a multicast group and an identifier of a VXLAN Tunnel End Point (VTEP) of the host computer associated to the VNI so that data being multicast for the multicast group can be routed to the networking interfaces via VTEPs associated with the VNI.
