Hi,
I wanted to know procedure to setup bridge on top of an existing bond interface
which is configured using linux native bonding.
I have configured "bond0" bond interface using eth1 and eth2 using mode=4 (alb)
and LACP configured in the physical switches (stacked), and later tested it by
assigning an IP address to the same, and it seems to be working just fine!
Later I removed the IP Address from bond interface which I have created (but
retained the bonding configurations), and now I want to create a bridge named
"cloudbr" using open vswitch that has trunks defined for multiple VLANs to be
channeled, and LACP also to be activated. I have tried the same using ovs-vsctl
command, but it is failing. I am getting confused on how to say that "cloudbr"
should use the native linux bond interface (bond0) and I also do not know on
how and where to configure the IP address for the VLAN. Do I need to create
ports and interfaces for the "cloudbr" bridge? Can I assign IP address to the
bridge itself, o rdo I need to assign it to the ports/interfaces? Anyway, I
have failed to do so, and need your expert advice.
I am using CentOS 6.4 and Open vSwitch 1.10.
The aim is to use OpenvSwitch to test KVM HA cluster. I understand that
openvSwitch will allow for clustering of hosts and distributed switching, and
helps in VM migration with ease, as compared to using the Linux native bridge.
Kindly help!
Thanks & Regards,
Ashraf Khalid
