It looks like you’re just pulling the packet statistics on a per VLAN basis and just determining if they’re passing traffic.

You could do something similar from AHV, but look for learned mac addresses in the VLAN you are specifically looking to see if it’s in use.

From AHV: ovs-appctl fdb/show br0-up
