A fake bridge uses an internal port to emulate the vlan model used by the Linux bridge. Therefore, they are functionally the same but a fake bridge allows the use of bridge commands to manipulate it. If you don't have existing tools then it is better to not use this compatibility layer. > 2.If I use gre tunnel,i have to add the gre port to the different bridge > with the host NIC(eth0).Is there any way to put "gre port" > and eth0 on one bridge without causing a loop? You could use OpenFlow rules to completely isolate them. This basically just creates two bridges within one. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
