VXLAN is a Layer 2 technology that enables you to create a Layer 2 network on top of a Layer 3 network, thereby providing further network isolation. VXLAN provides a virtual Layer 2 network that stretches over multiple physical Layer 2 networks. Provisioning resources in a cloud environment is not restricted to a single physical Layer 2 network. Physical servers can be a part of a VXLAN network as long as they are connected by IPv4 or IPv6 networks
