If you want use a protocol, then I'd just use STP, since it's a standard and OVS supports it. However, if you have a high-level view of the network, you can program the OVS flows in such a way that you don't use STP and make better use of your links that might otherwise be turned off to prevent loops. --Justin _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
