GENEVE Decapsulation

The GENEVE Decapsulation application is used to acquire and strip GENEVE headers. To route the traffic through the third-party network appliances seamlessly, the AWS gateway load balancer with a VPC adds GENEVE header to packets as they are forwarded to a third-party network appliance. Each appliance is expected to terminate the GENEVE tunnel and process the GENEVE encapsulated traffic traffic. When the GigaVUE-FM directs the acquisition of the customer traffic, the packets are encapsulated and forwarded as GENEVE tunnels that are terminated in GigaVUE V Series nodes.

To add a GENEVE application:

  1. Drag and drop GENEVE from APPLICATIONS to the graphical workspace.
  2. Click the GENEVE application and select Details. The Application quick view appears.
  3. Enter an alias for the GENEVE application.
  4. Click Save.
