Benoit, I presume that the physical interface in question is connected to a physical switch with dot1q tagging in operation on the physical port? If so, is it a Cisco switch by chance? And if yes, is the port configured to use vlan2 as the native vlan? We had a similar issue with the bridge in

Hi All, I have a couple of questions concerning the scalability of OVS when used in high-density virtualisation environments. To elaborate futher, a bit of background. Most virtualisation implementations do not go far enough in reality to abstract the virtual from the physical network environme
