Sugesh,

VNI  (now ) is set to 1000 on both sides.
The 2 machines are created on AWS
Below is the output of both devices (both attempt to ping their peer)  - look similar - there is no qinq.
I had a configuration problem - fixed already Below you can see that I have a flow (marked **)  for vxlan encapsulation , but not for vxlan decap ..  why is that ?

Device A
