vxlan mtu size

Dear Forum, I played around with vxlan, I was not able to set a bigger MTU then 1500 byte to my cloned interface.

Code:
 cloned_interfaces="vxlan0"
 create_args_vxlan0="vxlanid 108 vxlanlocal 192.168.100.1 vxlanremote    192.168.100.2"

Every time when I test to set the interface to a bigger MTU I reach the following message

Code:
ifconfig vxlan0 mtu 1505
ifconfig: ioctl SIOCSIFMTU (set mtu): Invalid argument

The parent interface is set to

Code:
ifconfig vtnet0
vtnet0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 2051

Can someone give me a helping hand?

And is there some knowledge how I can build a vlan unter this vxlan to ?

Code:
ifconfig vxlan0.1199 create vlan 1199 vlandev vxlan0 
ifconfig: SIOCIFCREATE2: Device not configured


Regards,

Chris
