> Yes, in general It is a rule, it matches a udp packet's dst port and the action is "now the packet is identified as vxlan packet" then all other rte_flow rules that match for a vlxan as pattern will take effect.  but somehow, I think they are not rules in the same domain, just like we have dedicate API for mac/vlan filter, we'd better have a dedicate API for this also. ( RFC for Vxlan explains why we need this. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7348).

Yes the port number is free.
But isn't it more natural to specify this port number
as part of the rte_flow rule?
