Hi Ben,
Thanks for the quick response. But really sorry that I didn't get you fully. Is that mean this default behavior works for any switch except OVS or if my understanding is wrong then please clarify how I can check the default behavior of access port in OVS. 1. For me " Bridge should not get tag (any tag) packet from its access port". Currently tag packet is coming out from access port and entry is hitting in bridge but it should not. 2. And it is very strange that vlan 4 packet is coming from vlan 3 access port to the switch (vlan 4 entry get hit on bridge) , this also I am not able to understand. Please clarify both above issues.
