- The NIC egress flow rules on representor port are not supported.
+- A driver limitation for ``RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_PORT_REPRESENTOR`` action
+ restricts the ``port_id`` configuration to only accept the value ``0xffff``,
+ indicating the E-Switch manager.
+ If the ``repr_matching_en`` flag is enabled, the traffic will be directed
+ to the representor of the source virtual port (SF/VF), while if it is disabled,
+ the traffic will be routed based on the steering rules in the ingress domain.

- Send to kernel action (``RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SEND_TO_KERNEL``):
- Supported on non-root table.
