Thanks for the response Ben.
If I am understanding the document correctly, the packets coming in
from the host (classified as Flow1 on page 29) in Switch A are tagged
with VLAN100, then tunneled to O3 (SwitchB's IP address) with a VNI ID
50. So there is only 1 VLAN field and that is the inner (the VLAN
field of the frame encapsulated in the VXLAN tunnel), which I need to
match on.
