That sounds like a really good idea. For now, we only have status on interfaces, but we might later want to have status on other objects (one can imagine QoS and Queue, for example, being able to report whether they were successfully instantiated, and similarly for other objects) so I wonder whether "status" should be generalized to handle those cases. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
