Hey All, What is the best way to use Maclearning rule(NORMAL) along-side other rules. The issue is that once mac-learning in done, packets will be sent to ports based on their mac-address. But i want to write other rules also that match on L3-L4 parameters that send the traffic to other ports.
In my view having both at the same time will break both the functionalities. What is the best possible way to handle this scenario? Can multiple tables be of any help? My question is especially relevant in term of the Quantum-OVS deployment where there is an integration-bridge(br-int) and one physical bridge(br-ex) for each physical network. All vms connect to the br-int. Both the bridges have some vlan-translation rules as well as the maclearning NORMAL rule. Now if i try to insert my own rules into br-int, it will break the normal networking in my quantum setup. Here are the connections in the Quantum model vm---br-int----br-ex----physicalnet -- Regards, -Ahmed Talha Khan _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
