Hello All,
We are planning to use openvswitch as regular switch for the following
scenario,
Packets receiving on the bridge should be forwared to virtual interface
created on top of openVswitch VBR based on the VLAN. Our software
application needs to send packets to a virtual interface which in turn has
to be bridged to another specific interface(eg. using VLAN). From the other
interface, another application would be hooked and it would in turn return
the response frames. This should be bridged back to the first interface
from which it would be picked up by the software application.
0. When we send the data thru VBR (switch) TX is getting incremented and
packets are transmitted, but its not received on the other side. RX is not
getting incremented.
1. Could you help us by providing the configuration required?
2. Let us know whether virtual interfaces can pass traffic without any hook
to a physical interface?
[root@sys-174-06 packets]# ovs-vsctl show

Looking forward you reply / help.
