Hi,

2) Traffic engineering - we don't have a lot of requirement for this,
but do
  have a small number of customers who buy A and B circuits, and require
them
  to be routed across different paths on our network. This is easy with
MPLS
  using explicit LSPs, but we've not yet worked out how to achieve the
same
  thing in VXLAN.

You may be able to achieve this by using a second loopback for the B
circuit VTEP IP address, and use either PBR or *cough* a static *cough*
route *cough* towards a different path. Not pretty, but will probably work.

Thanks,

Sabri


Or just use RSVP-TE... It's just IP.. T2 can do a MPLS lookup after
encapsulating in VXLAN..
