Thanks Ben,
*OVS doesn't do anything special with it. It treats it like any
otherfield.*
Could you please elaborate the above mentioned point.
My intention here was to know how OVS Queue the traffic(*Packets*) at port
which are coming from datapath(kernel space), it would really help me if
you point out the file name in OVS which handles the Queue mechanism .
*Regards*
Rakesh Kumar.
