Hi all,
Complete newbie question for which I can't seem to find an
answer anywhere in the docs or website. (Yes, I have searched but, being
new, perhaps not searching for the right thing!)
Why does each bridge
need to have a port and interface with the same name marked as type
"internal"?
If I attempt to delete them, for example, it says that the
port does not exist. How else are they used?
e.g.
$ovs-vsctl
show
e1bbbcb1-e20d-48e5-ae89-823c1a485625
Bridge br-tun
Port br-tun
Interface br-tun
type: internal
Port patch-int
Interface patch-int
type: patch
options: {peer=patch-tun}
Bridge br-int
Port br-int
Interface br-int
type: internal
Port "int-br-eth1"
Interface
"int-br-eth1"
Port patch-tun
Interface patch-tun
type: patch
options: {peer=patch-int}
Bridge "br-eth0"
Port "phy-br-eth0"
Interface "phy-br-eth0"
Port "eth0"
Interface "eth0"
Port "br-eth0"
Interface "br-eth0"
type: internal
Bridge "br-eth1"
Port "br-eth1"
Interface "br-eth1"
type: internal
Port "eth1"
Interface "eth1"
ovs_version: "1.4.0+build0"
$ovs-vsctl del-port br-eth1
ovs-vsctl: no
port named br-eth1
Cheers,
Tudor. _______________________________________________
