Vxlan- basic question

Hi everyone,

I have a question on vxlan. From what I see in deployments scenarios, there is a 1:1 mapping between vlan and vnid. So, how does this overcome the limit of 4096 vlans. I am having a hard time to understand this.

Am sorry if this is a lame question. But I just dont understand how this scales and how vxlan solves the issue. Please let me know like "eli5" as vxlan looks a little complex to me.
