Also, VXLAN offload is in almost all modern NICs.
- alvelcom 11y agoDoes this mean, that NICs computes checksums inside vxlan payload? As far as I understand, the major additional cost of vxlan comes from additional passing thought the whole network stack, which includes iptables and routing.
- virtuallynathan 11y agoI think it both adds and strips the VXLAN header and then does the checksums. Probably depends on the vendor.
