[ovs-discuss] Rhel 6.1 - openvswitch 1.2.2 - network commutation between physical and virtual - doesn't work

[Benoit ML]

Hi,

Some more information :
When I use TCPDUMp on the physcal interface user by openvswitch :
- I see the vlan ID  when the packet leave openvswitch (ARP request)
- I didn't see the vlan ID when the packet arrive (ARP respond)

It's like the  vlan was not transmit to openvswitch  (I clearly see that the
ARP answer is dropped by ovs)

Regard,
