Hi,

When I try to add a manual flow entry on S2 with ethertype = "0x88a8" , I
am getting an error message saying that is not a "valid" ethertype  (See
Below)


mininet> sh ovs-ofctl --protocols=OpenFlow13 add-flow s2
in_port=1,actions=push_vlan:0x88a8,set_field:100-\>vlan_vid,NORMAL
ovs-ofctl: 0x88a8: not a valid VLAN ethertype

The OpenvSwitch version I am using is below :-
*ovs-ofctl (Open vSwitch) 2.0.2*
*Compiled May 13 2015 18:51:44*
*OpenFlow versions 0x1:0x4*


What could be the issue ? Is 0x88a8 not supported for this version ?

Thanks,
Regards,
Varun
