If the underlay uses 1500 then the overlay needs to use at least 1550 for the 50 extra used for VXLAN overhead

Guess the other way around - overlay uses 1500, underlay needs to add extra 50B. Cisco: " Due to the MAC-to-UDP encapsulation, VXLAN introduces 50-byte overhead to the original frames. Therefore, the maximum transmission unit (MTU) in the transport network needs to be increased by 50 bytes. If the overlays use a 1500-byte MTU, the transport network needs to be configured to accommodate 1550-byte packets at a minimum. Jumbo-frame support in the transport network is required if the overlay applications tend to use larger frame sizes than 1500 bytes."
