Would you accept a patch to OVS which allowed a user to configure a single
VLAN to which the in-band rules applied? Basically, instead of wildcarding
the VLAN tag on all the in-band rules, it would optionally set them all to
use the configured VLAN, and then the in-band rules wouldn't affect any
traffic for other VLANs (even though it would previously have hit those
rules).
The default behaviour would still be the current behaviour, this would just
be an additional knob for a user to tweak if they thought it would work
better for them.
It seems reasonable to me, if it solves David's problem.
I think it actually just shifts the work around to other sections of the
network, I'd be interested in your feedback on my proposal (which I
think I'm going to implement and try out).
