switch# config terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# switchport mode dot1q-tunnel
switch(config-if)# switchport access vlan 10
switch(config-if)# spanning-tree bpdufilter enable
switch(config-if)# interface nve1
switch(config-if)# overlay-encapsulation vxlan-with-tag
• The following is an example of configuring a Q-in-VNI (NX-OS 7.0(3)I3(1) and later releases):
switch# config terminal
switch(config)# interface ethernet 1/4
switch(config-if)# switchport mode dot1q-tunnel
switch(config-if)# switchport access vlan 10
switch(config-if)# spanning-tree bpdufilter enable
switch(config-if)#

Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode.
Creates a 802.1Q tunnel on the port.

Note
releases.
This step is not required for NX-OS 7.0(3)I3(1) and
later releases.
Enables Q-in-VNI.
This step is required for NX-OS 7.0(3)I2(2) and earlier
Note
releases:
This step is not required for NX-OS 7.0(3)I3(1) and
later releases.
Note Starting with Release 7.0(3)I5(1), this step is not
required for Cisco Nexus 9000 Series switches with
Application Spine Engine (ASE). Also, provider
tagging (double tagging) is not applicable for Cisco
Nexus 9000 Series switches with Application Spine
