Open vSwitch recently acquired the ability to support VXLAN with the release of 1.10. In addition, upstream Linux supports VXLAN tunnels outside of the scope of OVS as well. There are 2 blueprints for adding this support to the OVS plugin, shown below:

I have a blueprint open to add support to the OVS plugin to support VXLAN here:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/ovs-vxlan-lisp-tunnel

There is also work to integrate OVS with the upstream VXLAN here:

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/quantum/+spec/openvswitch-kernel-vxlan

Neither of these has landed yet, however.

Thanks,
Kyle
