http://www.openvswitch.org/support/dist-docs/ovs-fields.7.txt has NSH
related match fields in addition to the information in the ovs-ofctl man
page.

Regarding NSH over IP transport, my understanding is that the latest NSH
RFC 8300 defines only the ethernet eth type of 0x894f for NSH.
I don't see any protocol type for IP. Some older draft versions of NSH did
have some example scenarios for L2/L3/GRE/NSH but looks like it is not
there in the current RFC.


Thanks,
Ashish
