[ovs-discuss] Can we set the priority queues in the port connecting to controller?

[adding back ovs-discuss]

I do believe that your computer has physical ports.  Your enqueue action
isn't using any of them, though, and OpenFlow 1.0 forbids that, with the
wording that I quoted.  To make your action acceptable, enqueue to a
physical port.
