Hi Nikhil: The patches from my github there currently allow you to setup a tunnel using VXLAN the same way you would do it with GRE. The only difference is it would be using VXLAN instead of GRE. You can basically follow the GRE setup but use a "type=vxlan" instead of gre. I'm working on the actual VXLAN changes now, such that it follows the IETF draft and supports multicast learning, etc. Those are a work in progress.
