>>1.) They use a linux bridge to apply netfilter firewall. yes. (1 bridge by tap)
>>2.) They use an OVS bridge and plug in the linux bridge (using veth pair?) not anymore, because of performance problems. now, they plug ovsint port to bridge >>3.) They use an (GRE) tunnel to a dedicated network host? I'm not sure, but they use gre or vxlan, to have a internals vm networks across hosts.

BTW, do I understand the OpenStack network correctly? 1.) They use a linux bridge to apply netfilter firewall. 2.) They use an OVS bridge and plug in the linux bridge (using veth pair?) 3.) They use an (GRE) tunnel to a dedicated network host? Not sure if that is correct, but I do not believe that is faster. _______________________________________________ pve-devel mailing list pve-devel@pve.proxmox.com http://pve.proxmox.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pve-devel
