That's what I had in mind as well although using a differentiator bit which indicates to the output path whether the packet is to be considered switched or routed and thus send ICMPs. The bit would be set per flow, thus allowing arbitary granularity of behaviour. I haven't fully thought this through yet though. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
