What is OTV configuration?
What is Cisco OTV? Cisco OTV stands for Overlay Transport Virtualization, So OTV is a Cisco propriety protocol used in Cisco Datacenter environment basically on Cisco Nexus device Cisco Nexus 7k to extend the L2 traffic via L3 route between two different datacenter.
What is OTV site VLAN?
OTV uses a VLAN called “Site VLAN” within a site to detect and establish a Site Adjacency with other OTV edge devices. For Delta, the Site VLAN will be carried on multiple Layer 2 paths across the vPC connection on the Distr VDCs to increase the resiliency of this internal adjacency.
What is OTV in Cisco?
OTV is a MAC-in-IP method that extends Layer 2 connectivity across a transport network infrastructure. OTV uses MAC address-based routing and IP-encapsulated forwarding across a transport network to provide support for applications that require Layer 2 adjacency, such as clusters and virtualization.
What is the difference between OTV and Vxlan?
Well VXLAN is extending the VLANs or layer 2 traffic within the datacenter while OTV is the extension of the layer 2 Traffic across the datacenter. VXLAN comes into mind when there is east-west traffic fundamentals comes into picture.
What is the full form of OTV?

Is OTV Cisco proprietary?
Overlay transport virtualization (OTV) is a Cisco proprietary protocol for relaying layer 2 communications between layer 3 computer networks.
Why do we need OTV?
The principle of OTV is to build a control plane between the OTV edge devices to advertise MAC address reachability information instead of using data plane learning. However, before MAC reachability information can be exchanged, all OTV edge devices must become “adjacent” to each other from an OTV perspective.
What is OTV in ACI?
OTV is a MAC in IP technique for supporting Layer 2 VPNs to extend LANs over any transport. The transport can be Layer 2 based, Layer 3 based, IP switched, label switched, or anything else as long as it can carry IP packets.
What is EVPN BGP?
EVPN is an extension to BGP that allows the network to carry endpoint reachability information such as Layer 2 MAC addresses and Layer 3 IP addresses. This control plane technology uses MP-BGP for MAC and IP address endpoint distribution, where MAC addresses are treated as routes.

What is Layer 2 extension?
Stretched Layer 2 Data Path: A L2C can stretch existing VLAN or VXLAN port groups from the on-premises data center to vCloud Air by truncating networks on either side, and creating a secure tunnel end to end to protect and pass VM network traffic.
