Hi Eduard,

Hopefully diagrams in following page can clear things up.
http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/under_the_hood_openvswitch.html

Terms explained below based on my understanding
- qvo: veth pair openvswitch side
- qvb: veth pair bridge side
- qbr: bridge
- qr: l3 agent managed port, router side
- qg: l3 agent managed port, gateway side

Not sure about the qve you mentioned, didn't see it anywere in the code.

Thanks,
