OVS ports are trunks by default. As I said, the setting for "trunks" does not matter in your case because you are not using "normal".
To match on traffic that is tagged or untagged, match on vlan_tci or dl_vlan. See ovs-ofctl(8). On Fri, Aug 19, 2016 at 08:02:55PM +0200, james hopper wrote: > Aren't OVS ports trunks by default?
