<div dir="ltr">For the list, I'll post the same response i gave you when you pinged me off-list about this: <div><br></div><div><span style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px">t was a long time ago when I wrote that, and the original goal was to use a single bridge, but there some something about how OVS worked at the time that required the two bridges. I think it was related to how the OVS bridge needed to learn to associate MAC addresses + VLANs to particular tunnel ports, but I don't remember the details. This stuff was pretty simple, so I'm guessing if you mess around with it for a little bit, you'll either find that it now works (due to some change in OVS) or that it still doesn't (in which case, it will be obvious why). </span><br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Anyway I have few simple questions regarding the way ovs gets configured the way it is in the current form in kvm!!<u></u><u></u></p>

<p><u></u><span>-<span style="font:7.0pt "Times New Roman"">
</span></span><u></u>As I understand, OVS setups two datapaths instances br-int & br-tun & uses patch port to connect them. Additionally it uses local vlans in the br-int for the vm-vm traffic!!<u></u><u></u></p>
