Virtual extensible Local Area Networking (VXLAN) is an advanced network protocol
supported by VMware and a wide range of hardware vendors. Which statement about
VXLAN accurately describes its basic mode of operation?
A.
VXLAN encapsulates layer 2 MAC frames into layer 3 UDP packets for transport across
a physical IP network.
B.
VXLAN encapsulates layer 3 MAC frames into layer 2 UDP packets for transport across
a physical IP network.
C.
VXLAN encapsulates layer 2 MAC frames into layer 3 TCP packets for transport across a
physical IP network.
D.
VXLAN encapsulates layer 3 MAC frames into layer 2 TCP packets for transport across a
physical IP network.
Correct is A.
Yes, correct answer is A. for vca6-nv I found that every other site has same set of questions with same set of wrong answers 🙂
Answer is B. Check RFC-7348 detailing the VXLAN
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7348
I get A as well on this.Check this blog:

VXLAN Gateway
The VXLAN gateway provides a mechanism for combining a traditional VLAN-based segment with a VXLAN segment to form a single broadcast domain. This mechanism enables the virtual machines in a VXLAN segment to communicate with physical servers, physical service nodes, and physical network nodes such as Layer 3 routes present on the VLAN segments.
