-A: The kernel module in upstream Linux 3.3 and later does not include
- tunnel virtual ports, that is, interfaces with type "gre",
- "ipsec_gre", "gre64", "ipsec_gre64", "vxlan", or "lisp". It is
- possible to create tunnels in Linux and attach them to Open vSwitch
- as system devices. However, they cannot be dynamically created
- through the OVSDB protocol or set the tunnel ids as a flow action.
-
- Work is in progress in adding tunnel virtual ports to the upstream
- Linux version of the Open vSwitch kernel module. For now, if you
- need these features, use the kernel module from the Open vSwitch
