If you aren't running it, probably isn't needed. I mention it only
because you had used the word 'wireless'. And there is a patch around
for hostapd to talk properly to ovs.

a quick google for 'manet arp' indicates something like:
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/manet/current/msg08124.html
So depending upon the devices you have, the bridging/repeater mode of
your node(2) may have issues.
Maybe a manet mailing list might have an answer?
