Hi Dave,

Intended use-case for br-vlan is when you want or need to provide vlan networks in the environment.

As example, we use vlan networks to bring in customers owned public networks, as we need to pass vlan from the gateway to the compute nodes, and we are not able to set vxlan on the gateway due to hardware that is used there.

At the same time in many environments you might not need using vlans at all, as vxlan is what will be used by default to provide tenant networks.

Hello.

I'm preparing to do my first deployment (of Yoga) on real hardware.  The documentation regarding br-vlan was hard for me to understand.   Could I get a clarification on what to do with this?   

Note:  my intended use case is as an academic/instructional environment.  I'm thinking along the lines of treating each student as a separate tenant that would be preconfigured with templated set of VMs appropriate to the course content.

Any other thoughts regarding this scenario would also be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

-Dave
