Sorry, maybe I explained myself bad. By using gre tunnels I created an overlay network between the openvswitches which I also call "internal" because, except for specific events, traffic which travels on this network will just be for hosts belonging to it. So you say problem could be a loop?I am s

Problem is that for my project I need openvswitches which can be used to make communicate internal hosts with external ones, if specific events occur. So my idea was the following: a generic openvswitch would have been like -br0 ---eth0 ---gre0 tag2 If I would have needed to share some resource t

I have another problem. I have an openvswitch linked to another openvswitch by a gre tunnel. This tunnel belongs to the vlan 2. I have one Vm for each switch, each vm is attached to the switch by a port tagged 2. Now, everything works fine until I add my eth0 port to these openvswitches. When I do

I already read that article but that is a configuration I'd like to avoid as I would need to double the number of my switches and ports (gre+tep for each link). I'd just like to know if eth0 should not be attached to the switch in order for the gre tunnel to work or if I am doing something wrong.
