The NLB mode allows the VSP to install ARP entries which point to either a multicast MAC or a bogus unicast MAC, depending on which NLB mode you use.</P><P>The L2 VSPs need no NLB config; they will flood the multicast MAC out of all VLAN ports and will do the same for the NLB bogus unicast MACs which are always unknown as never learnt from any port.</P> Fri, 09 Feb 2024 15:59:41 GMT https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-vsp-fabric/nlb-vsp/m-p/99287#M2322 Ludovico_Steven 2024-02-09T15:59:41Z
