Sorry. I forgot to mention it. I have applied the patches as per the thread
[ovs-dev] [PATCH] Implement draft VXLAN L2-over-L3 tunneling protocol.
And I could ping vm1 and vm2 across this tunnel.
What I am looking for is how to pass VNI in the setup command.
Thanks

Open vSwitch doesn't currently support VXLAN.
