* - Known MAC address
- Unicast packet is sent to destination worker node.
- Unicast packet is sent to destination worker node.
* - Unknown MAC address
- The packet is dropped.
- A multicast packet is sent to all registered nodes.
* - Broadcast MAC address
- #. If the packet is an IPv4 ARP packet, and the target IP address is
known, then a reply packet is created and sent to the originator
directly without involving the intended recipient or destination
VTEP node.
#. Otherwise the packet is cloned and a copy is sent to each
registered/known worker node on that data network.
- A multicast packet is sent to all registered nodes.
