> I'm wondering if , as said by [@bradh352](https://github.com/bradh352), supporting vlan aware bridges could be a first step to simplify trunking. > > Then one could introduce a list of tags in a followup PR (e.g. `vlan://1000,2200,30,untagged`) as a possibility where nothing would change in existing deployments. For VXLAN I don't know what would be a good option as some mapping would need to occur somewhere > > A better option may be to change the vlan list into an actual list supporting ranges as well, not just comma separated lists. This would probably require more effort though (haven't looked into the Java codebase yet). > > Is this something that would fit the current direction at all? yes, supporting vlan aware bridges in cloudstack would be a first step. i was actually shocked when I first started using cloudstack that wasn't already used, took me a while to wrap my head around what cloudstack was doing. i'm just not sure exactly what an integration plan would be like. I would assume a new network type might be needed unless it detects what the user specified as the base interface and if its a vlan-filtered bridge it decides based on that. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
