Subject: Regarding vxlan unicast configuration

Hi,

I am trying vxlan unicast configuration on a back to back connected
interfaces of VM1 and VM2 running fedora 23 with 4.2 version of
kernel. Below is my configuration

VM1

ip address add 100.1.1.1/24 dev enp0s8
ifconfig enp0s8 up
ip link add name vxlan42 type vxlan id 42 dev enp0s8 remote 50.1.1.2
local 50.1.1.1 dstport 4789
ip address add 50.1.1.1/24 dev vxlan42
ip link set up vxlan42

VM2

ip address add 100.1.1.2/24 dev enp0s8
ifconfig enp0s8 up
ip link add name vxlan42 type vxlan id 42 dev enp0s8 remote 50.1.1.1
local 50.1.1.2 dstport 4789
ip address add 50.1.1.2/24 dev vxlan42
ip link set up vxlan42

Now when I try to ping 50.1.1.1 from VM2, I am receiving ARP packets
on VM1 which are not vxlan tagged. As a result ping is not working.

I am able to successfully configure multicast based vxlan but having
issues with vxlan unicast.

Is there something wrong with my configuration ?

Regards,
Ajith
