Hi Radhika,

Thank you for your work! Some comments:

<quote>
For other Catalyst PVLAN support switch, connect the switch to upper switch by using cables. The number of cables should be greater than the number of PVLANs used.
</quote>

This is a little confusion. Should be "by using multiple cables, which one cable for each PVLAN pair". And the last sentence is not necessary.

<quote>
OVS on XenServer and KVM does not support PVLAN. Therefore, simulate PVLAN on OVS for XenServer and KVM by modifying the flow table and tagging every traffic leaving guest VMs with the secondary VLAN ID.
</quote>

I think the following description is more clear:

"OVS on XenServer and KVM does not support PVLAN natively. Therefore, CloudStack managed to simulate PVLAN on OVS for XenServer and KVM by modifying the flow table."
