+.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces vxlan <interface> parameters external
Specifies whether an external control plane (e.g. BGP L2VPN/EVPN) or the
internal FDB should be used.

+ In order to minimize the flooding of ARP and ND messages in the VXLAN network,
+ EVPN includes provisions :rfc:`7432#section-10` that allow participating VTEPs
+ to suppress such messages in case they know the MAC-IP binding and can reply

+ Specifies if unknown source link layer addresses and IP addresses are entered
