Hi Justin,

I am starting out with a simple flow at this point. Here are what the flows
look like.

 1(gre11): addr:2e:dd:e9:28:64:8e
 2(gre7): addr:26:85:c8:b6:c8:55
 6(vif4.1): addr:fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

ovs-ofctl add-flow sdc1-br 'priority=65000 in_port=6
dl_dst='01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00' actions='normal''
ovs-ofctl add-flow sdc1-br 'priority=50000
dl_dst='01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00' actions=output:6'
ovs-ofctl add-flow sdc1-br 'priority=49999 in_port=1
dl_dst='01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00' actions='drop''
ovs-ofctl add-flow sdc1-br 'priority=49998 in_port=2
dl_dst='01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00' actions='drop''

Using the above flow I am to forward broadcasts just to the VMs(vif4.1). It
works but I think its not ideal solution as ARP reply in this case is going
to out both gre tunnels.

Thanks

Faisal
