Thanks Akes for your inputs.
I have been monitoring all the table update using ovsdb-mon
<https://github.com/amorenoz/ovsdb-mon> . I dont see any addition or
deletion in MAC_binding table updates. I have been running this script
overnight. There was no change in the count and the table entries. I am
suspecting that I might have missed some configuration parameter.  I am
referring here
