If you run esxcli network ip netstack list on one of the transport nodes, vxlan is one of the available tcp/ip stacks, not geneve. The correct syntax for C should be vmkping ++netstack=vxlan<space>-d -s 1572 <IP>. You can run this without -d and it will work as well.

NSX-T uses GENEVE, but this is just referring to the default name given to the network stack on ESXi. It is still named vxlan in NSX-T.

I agree, here a link with the NOTE talking about EVEN though the overlay encapsulation used in NSX-T is GENEVE, the esxi command is still the same using the stack vxlan.: https://shuttletitan.com/nsx-t/nsx-t-installation-series/nsx-t-installation-series-step-9-configure-host-transport-node/

TEP's don't use VXLAN. Shouldn't it be Geneve?
