I expected that since the flow with the lower priority will never be matched over the higher one, it has no purpose and would not be added.

Hmm, on second glance, the protocol says that if you add an identical flow that also has the same priority then the flow will just be replaced. But, I don't think it says anything about this case. Sorry, I should have confirmed that before posting.

That said, do you think these identical flows should be allowed?

clear from this output if it's working or not, since neither counter shows a 
value.  Are you running traffic?

Should I be able to add two identical wildcarded flows with different 
priorities? I was talking with KK and he thinks this might be a bug. I always 
assumed this was just the way it works. Here is my ovs-ofctl flow dump:

cookie=0x0, duration=94.608s, table_id=0, n_packets=0, n_bytes=0, 
priority=5,dl_type=0x0005 actions=drop
cookie=0x0, duration=98.109s, table_id=0, n_packets=0, n_bytes=0, 
priority=1,dl_type=0x0005 actions=drop

Thanks,
