Hi Ben,

Please correct me if I am wrong here.

According to yours statement " *It does not make sense to enable VLAN
splinters on an interface for an access port, or on an interface that is
not a physical port. "*

Thus We can not use Vlan tag on virtual interference like ovsbr0,
vnet0(tap/tun) .....Right ?
 so Vlan splinters has no use for ovsbr0.4 , ovsbr0.5 etc ?

Thanks
