Hello ,
When you create a bridge like below then you will have standard switch , it
will behave like L2 switch , it will learn MAC and make forwarding for
virtual servers communications .
sudo ovs-vsctl add-br learning-switch
Default OVS switch ports are Trunk and you can also specify access ports for
virtual servers like below and also see the MAC Table like traditional
switch
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:a0:c1:81'/>
<source bridge='bridge1'/>
<vlan>
<tag id='497'/>
</vlan>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
<parameters interfaceid='4b25e7e1-7db2-4133-a8b8-0c050f4983d2'/>
</virtualport>
> noroot@kvm-ovs-server1:~$ sudo ovs-appctl fdb/show learning-switch
>
> port VLAN MAC Age
>
> 4 497 52:54:00:6c:74:56 0
>
> 2 497 52:54:00:bd:d1:a7 0
Also you can enable/disable STP too !
Regards
VM

Subject: [ovs-discuss] openvswitch noraml behaviour
hi , everyone
i'm doing a performance comparison between SDN and a traditional network
using mininet, but unfortunately mininet doesn't emulate traditional
networks directly.
some solutions suggests using openvswitch in the normal switch behavior by
installing flow entry with "Normal Forwarding" , is that correct ? is there
another way to let the switch completely behaves as A tradition switch ?
e.g ,, Vlans ,Spanning Tree ?
