Hello:

I've seen this behavior in OVS 2.12. Previous versions work well (2.11 and 2.10).

I detected this problem using Neutron (master), OVS 2.12 and OVS firewall. The firewall flows are added to the DB using "--bundle". This requires OF14. Because this protocol is added after the bridge is created, it does not work.

But if the protocol is added in the same transaction of the creation [1], then the "--bundle" add-flows commands work.

Regards.
