Great - the rules works alot better after running ovs-vsctl del-controller
xapi5 ;-)
It looks like everything works now.

The rules for the XCP VMs to prevent mac/ip spoofing (although allowing
dhcp) are then:

/usr/bin/ovs-ofctl add-flow xapi5 "in_port=15 priority=39500 dl_type=udp
tp_dst=67 dl_src=a6:1e:29:3d:69:51 idle_timeout=0 action=normal"

/usr/bin/ovs-ofctl add-flow xapi5 "in_port=15 priority=39000 dl_type=0x0800
nw_src=10.10.8.73 dl_src=a6:1e:29:3d:69:51 idle_timeout=0 action=normal"

/usr/bin/ovs-ofctl add-flow xapi5 "in_port=15 priority=38500 dl_type=0x0806
dl_src=a6:1e:29:3d:69:51 idle_timeout=0 action=normal"

/usr/bin/ovs-ofctl add-flow xapi5 "in_port=15 priority=38000 idle_timeout=0
action=drop"

If something could be improved, security/performance, I would be happy to
know about it! ;-)

Thanks for your help!

Regards
Kristoffer
