Hi Sugesh,

Thanks. but its still the same.It seems the packets are not getting
forwarded from the vxlan interface.
Please find the logs attached.

As you can see in the br0 packets are reaching the vxlan interface and its
not forwarding form there it seems dropped at vxlan interface.

The same configurations is working without the dpdk.
please refer  the attached diagram for my set up.

Thanks
