[ovs-discuss] VLAN settings with patch port

Hi,

I think so, since NORMAL port instruct OVS to use the traditional
switching/routing
behaviour (I mean, non-OpenFlow pipeline) and doing so you should have a route
between both L3 networks. Adding this more specific flow (higher
priority), it'll be used to send data to
other network.
