Hi Thiago,
VXLAN requires an IP address on each host from which to build the overlay mesh between hosts. Some choose to use a dedicated interface/IP/VLAN for this, but its not required.
As for ‘vconfig’ missing - It appears that the 'ip link’ command (iproute2) is being used instead to create vlan interfaces.
