[ovs-discuss] IP on Lag - is it possible?

I was wondering if setting an IP to a lag (bond) is possible in OVS, meaning - when a packet is routed to a lag, it will load-balanced to the router's next-hop.

The way I tried to configure it, is by:
1. Create a bond, and add a vlan tag to it.
2. Create an interface of type - internal, and add it to the bridge. Then configure it with the same tag from (1), and an IP. That IP is suppose to be the lag IP.

This way, when a packet is routed using the above IP, it will reach the lag, but will it be load-balanced by the lag?
It didn't work for me in OVS 1.4
Is it possible using another way?
