VXLAN - Understanding the Multicast Underlay

One of the ways that a VXLAN topology will operate its control plane is using a multicast underlay. But how does it work? In this video I will give you a step by step explanation of the mechanisms of the multicast underlay of a VXLAN topology.

Virtual eXtensible LAN, or VXLAN is a network virtualization technology that is exceptionally useful for large datacenter and cloud computing deployments. VXLAN has been developed to overcome some of the limitations of scalability that are inherent to more traditional Layer 2 technologies.

Good explanation, one doubt after the vxlan mapping updating happened in both vtep1 and 2
the next continuous traffic will again this vtep encapsulation will required or 1st time only ?
