1000v VXLAN Can't get uplink MTU: 4681

I'm trying to configure VXLAN on 1000v but it not working between two esx.

As I followed the troubleshooting guide on Cisco's website I discovered the following error:  Can't get uplink MTU: 4681

Here is the output of the "vemcmd show vxlan-stats ltl 50"  command. Port LTL 50 is the VM's port.

If I run esxcfg-vswitch -l I get this (strange thing is I've set mtu to 9000 on 1000v):

I've set mtu to 9000 on the UPLINK profile (port-profile)  and enabled  jumbo frames support on the upstream switch.

Some updates. I debugged VEMs a little and I found this:

It seems LTL 0 is missing but I've no idea what is LTL 0.

Anyone have an idea?

PS.:
