Abstract
A method, an apparatus and a VTEP for synchronizing MAC address are provided. According to the method, first mapping relationship configured on first aggregation/IPP port of first VTEP is notified to second VTEP in a same MLAG system. The second VTEP configures the relationship on second aggregation/IPP port of the second VETP. The relationship represents a mapping relationship of first tag ID of first port of the first VTEP to first VXLAN ID. Second tag ID of second port of the second VTEP differs from the first tag ID. The first VTEP receives a successful configuration message returned by the second VTEP after successfully configuring the relationship on the second IPP port. The first VTEP then sends first MAC address to the second IPP port via the first IPP port, wherein the first MAC address is the MAC address of a device accessing the first VTEP via the first port.
