Hi!
Not workink OVS (OpenvirtualSwitch), i can not ping PC1 to PC2 and vice versa but i see mac address PC1 on PC2 and PC2 on PC1
I configured my servers (CentOS8) for work with OVS vxlan (i installed OVS by yum install).

PC1(ip 192.168.21.101)====ens224(without ip) Server1_CentOS8 ens160(ip 192.168.13.19)--------ens160(ip 192.168.13.20) Server2_CentOS8 ens224 (without ip)===== LAN (192.168.21.0/24) PC2(ip 192.168.21.7)

on Server1 config:
ovs-vsctl add-br bridge22
ovs-vsctl add-port bridge22 vxlan22 -- set interface vxlan22 type=vxlan options:key=22 options:remote_ip=192.168.13.20 options:local_ip=192.168.13.19
ovs-vsctl add-port bridge22 ens224

on Server2 config:
ovs-vsctl add-br bridge22
ovs-vsctl add-port bridge22 vxlan22 -- set interface vxlan22 type=vxlan options:key=22 options:remote_ip=192.168.13.19 options:local_ip=192.168.13.20
ovs-vsctl add-port bridge22 ens224

ovs-vsctl show on Server1

Solved!!!
This LAB was in VMware esxi.
For resolving problem need enable "promiscuous mode" (see https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1004099) in virtual switch, whitch connect to network interface Server1 and Server2
