In VXLAN networks, broadcast DHCP requests are head-end-replicated to all VXLAN tunnel endpoints (VTEP). If a DHCP relay helper address is configured on more than one VTEP, each such VTEP relays the DHCP request to the configured DHCP server. This could potentially overwhelm the DHCP server as it would receive multiple copies of broadcast packets originated from a host connected to one of the VTEPs.

Traceroute and tracert are widely available diagnostic command-line interface commands for displaying possible routes (paths) and transit delays of packets across an Internet Protocol (IP) network. This enhancement applies to IPv4 and IPv6 overlay. The VTEP overlay ICMPs for “time-to-live expired” (aka TTL-expired) are sourced with the VTEP IP which results in the traceroute output to display the VTEP IPs on the overlay packet’s path from source to destination.

This feature allows the VRRP MAC to be advertised via EVPN MAC-only routes when VRRP is configured on the VTEP.
