All the VFs VSIs can decide whether to connect to the legacy VEB/VEPA or the floating VEB. When connect to the floating VEB a new floating VEB is created. Now all the VFs need to connect to floating VEB or legacy VEB, cannot connect to both of them. The PF and VMDQ,FD VSIs connect to the old legacy VEB/VEPA. All the VEB/VEPA concepts are not specific for FVL, they are defined in the 802.1Qbg spec. This floating VEB only take effects on the specific version F/W.
