Hi everyone, 
How are you?
I hope are fine. 

Sorry to bother you, but I have a question regarding a "problem" or strange 
behaviour when I use openvswitch with vlan traffic.
I am using the topology that I sent you in the attached file. I'm trying to 
ping between host 1 and host 2, encapsulating the traffic of each host in a 
vlan, more specifically vlan 1000. For that I created four flows to make the 
ping work but it doesn't, because the rules are not applied. With tshark I can 
see the traffic enter the switch 01 but it doesn't come out on any port. The 
flow information is vlan_id = 1000, which is connected to the host port, to 
come out on port to connected to switch 2.
Also I tried removing the vlan id field from the flow but it still doesn't 
work, as I supposed. The last test, I tried without encapsulated the host 
traffic on vlan, so the ping worked. 
On other hand, when I test using traffic without encapsulating on vlan, and 
create flows to set a vlan id and forwarding the traffic filter with the field 
vlan_id, it works. Due to this, I don't understand what I do wrong.
Best Regards, Rafael
