Hi Salvatore:

I have thought about this. The changes I've made just enable VXLAN support in the OVS plugin similar to how GRE is enabled there. Once we migrate the OVS plugin to ML2, it should be a seamless task to take the VXLAN and GRE tunneling modes over there. Of course, I hope Bob reads this thread and responds with his thoughts.

Thank for your offer of review, I believe I've addressed comments from Akihiro, Edgar, and Paul M. already, would welcome any you have!

Kyle
