Configuring Flood in Encapsulation

This procedure shows you how to use the Cisco APIC REST API to configure flood in encapsulation for the bridge domain and endpoint groups (EPGs). This procedure performs the same operation as the GUI procedure of the same name in the Cisco APIC Layer 2 Networking Configuration Guide.

Procedure

Step 1

Configure flood in encapsulation for the bridge domain.

Example:

POST https://<apic-ip-address>/api/mo/uni/tn-T1.xml

<fvTenant name="T1">
    <fvCtx name="T1PN"/>
    <fvBD arpFlood="yes" multiDstPktAct="encap-flood" name="T1PNBD-Web" unkMacUcastAct="flood" unkMcastAct="flood">
    </fvBD>
</fvTenant>

Step 2

Configure flood in encapsulation for the EPG.

Example:

POST https://<apic-ip-address>/api/mo/uni/tn-T1.xml

<fvTenant name="T1">
    <fvAp name="AP1">
        <fvAEPg floodOnEncap="enabled" name="MS81Web" >
        </fvAEPg>
    </fvAp>
</fvTenant>
