Open Stack

Hi there,

I am little new to the openstack networking project, previously known as quantum:)

Anyway I have few simple questions regarding the way ovs gets configured the way it is in the current form in kvm!!

Here it goes,


-          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!!

o   I understand the reason behind the current setup but I am not sure why it needs to be like it?

§  can't the same features can be supported with single instance like br-int & fllows are setup correctly to get things right including quantum security groups?


I know there must be some technical reasons behind all these but I just want get some history & also want to know whether anyone is planning to enhance it in future?

Thx,

Nrupal.
