ARP suppression allows the Linux bridge to answer ARP requests on behalf
of remote hosts. It reduces the amount of packets a VTEP needs to flood.
This test verifies that ARP suppression on / off works when a neighbour
exists and when it does not exist. It does so by sending an ARP request
from a host connected to one VTEP and checking whether it was received
by a second VTEP.

Verify that ARP packets are correctly decapsulated by the ingress VTEP
by removing the neighbours configured on both VLAN interfaces and
running a ping test.

In asymmetric routing the ingress VTEP routes the packet into the
correct VXLAN tunnel, whereas the egress VTEP only bridges the packet to
the correct host. Therefore, packets in different directions use
different VNIs - the target VNI.
The test uses a simple topology with two VTEPs and two VNIs and verifies
that ping passes between hosts (local / remote) in the same VLAN (VNI)
and in different VLANs belonging to the same tenant (VRF).
While the test does not check VM mobility, it does configure an anycast
gateway using a macvlan device on both VTEPs.
