Hi all, I have gone through the ovs-vswitchd and ovs-vswitchd.conf man pages. I couldn't find anything similar to Virtual Switch Tagging (VST mode) in VMware ESX. Basically, "the virtual switch port group tags all outbound frames and removes tags for all inbound frames." I have tried 'Untagged VLAN Ports'. Although, similar, this is different from VST mode. It will only receive frames with 802.1Q headers of specified VID. However, the outbound frames are untagged. I have verify the above statement using two KVM virtual machines together with usermode open vswitch (open vswitch kernel module won't compile on 2.6.32.8 Linux kernel.
So, I am wondering if I can implement something similar to VST mode on open vswitch? Correct me if I have any misunderstanding about VLAN support in open vswitch. p.s. The VST mode and some other VLAN features are documented at http://www.vmware.com/pdf/esx3_vlan_wp.pdf Thanks, ~D
