I just saw following thread on this alias (also attached), is it true for OVS 
2.5.0 also? Is it because it is an "optional" action in OF 1.3 spec?

Thanks
Maurice

OVS doesn't support that.

===================================

Subject: [ovs-discuss] Q-in-Q in OF1.3

I want to add a flow to push a new tag on top of an existing tag. I see 
following syntax in different examples:

Ovs-Ofctl Add-Flow <Bridge> <Match-Field> 
Actions=Push_vlan:<Ethertype>,Set_field:<Value>-\>Vlan_vid,Output:<Port>

Using push_vlan,you can push a new vlan to packets,ethertypeis the ethertype 
for the tag(only support 0x8100 at the moment.set_field is used to set the 
value of priority ,the format is like this.


Set_field is for pcp value, where do I specify the 12 bit Vlan value.

A working example will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Ben,

Yes I know, but I didn't try to configure QinQ functionality, only adding 
additional .1q tag, this is slightly different and can be done  by standard 
Ethernet switch.
