+Matches tunnel IPv4 source (or destination) address \fIip\fR. Only packets
+that arrive over a tunnel will have nonzero tunnel addresses.
+The address may be specified as an IP address or host name
+(e.g. \fB192.168.1.1\fR or \fBwww.example.com\fR). The optional
+\fInetmask\fR allows restricting a match to a masked IPv4 address.

.IP "\fBreg\fIidx\fB=\fIvalue\fR[\fB/\fImask\fR]"
Matches \fIvalue\fR either exactly or with optional \fImask\fR in

When a packet enters an OpenFlow switch, all of the registers are set
to 0. Only explicit Nicira extension actions change register values.

+Matches packet metadata mark \fIvalue\fR either exactly or with optional

+On Linux this corresponds to the skb mark but the exact implementation is

Defining IPv6 flows (those with \fBdl_type\fR equal to 0x86dd) requires
support for NXM. The following shorthand notations are available for
\fBpush_mpls\fR being discarded.

.IP \fBpop_mpls\fR:\fIethertype\fR
-Strips the outermost MPLS label stack entry. If the MPLS label
-stripped was the only one, changes the ethertype of a packet to
-\fIethertype\fR, which should not ordinarily be an MPLS Ethertype.
+Strips the outermost MPLS label stack entry.
+Currently the implementation restricts \fIethertype\fR to a non-MPLS Ethertype
