Hi Guys,

I am facing an issue wrt the del-port command here. Refer to my config here:
Commands used:
ovs-vsctl add-port OVS-VlanBridge vnet96
ovs-vsctl set port vnet96 tag=5
ovs-vsctl add-port OVS-VlanBridge eth3


[root@ kvm ~]# ovs-vsctl show
412338cc-eca8-4ea0-a4d8-793ec0444d23
Bridge OVS-VlanBridge
       Port OVS-VlanBridge
            Interface OVS-VlanBridge
                type: internal
       Port "eth3"
            Interface "eth3"
       Port "vnet96"
            tag: 5
            Interface "vnet96"

The port vnet96  is connected to a vm interface which provides outside access 
to the vm for VLAN 5.
The eth3 port is the physical port on the host connected to the outside world.  
It acts as a trunk with no trunk tags specified, hence being a VLAN all trunk 
port.
Ifconfig output on the host :

[root@ kvm ~]# ifconfig | grep eth3
eth3      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 0C:C4:7A:12:33:27
eth3.5    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 0C:C4:7A:12:33:27

The eth3.5 is automatically created by the OVS. If however I delete the eth3 
from OVS-VlanBridge using the del-port command the eth3.5 is not cleaned up. Do 
I need an additional command to clean this up? Or is this an bug?

[root@ kvm ~]# ovs-vsctl --if-exists del-port eth3

[root@ kvm ~]# ifconfig | grep eth3
eth3      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 0C:C4:7A:12:33:27
eth3.5    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 0C:C4:7A:12:33:27
