+ Limits the number of VLAN headers that can be matched to the
+ specified number. Further VLAN headers will be treated as payload,
+ e.g. a packet with more 802.1q headers will match Ethernet type
+ 0x8100.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ Value <code>0</code> means unlimited. The actual number of supported
+ VLAN headers is the smallest of <code>vlan-limit</code>, the number
+ of VLANs supported by Open vSwitch userspace (currently 2), and the
+ number supported by the datapath.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ If this value is absent, the default is currently 1. This maintains
+ backward compatibility with controllers that were designed for use
+ with Open vSwitch versions earlier than 2.8, which only supported one
+ VLAN.
