Hello Wade,

I ran into this problem as well and it's a bit confusing.  The eth12 interface is used in the AIO since we need three networks (VLAN, flat, and VXLAN), but we have only two bridges (br-vlan and br-vxlan).  You can use eth12 in your deployments, but you'll need to create a veth for that.  There's no requirement to use all three of these network types in your production environment.

Which networks do you plan to use?  If you plan to use VLAN and VXLAN without flat networking, you can omit the provider network section for the flat network.  Here's an excerpt from what I'm using in production:

Does that help?
