Hello,

I am trying to set up 4 VMs on 2 HOSTs running openflow openvswitchs.


HOST 1                                       HOST2

VM1 (vlan 1)                                VM4 (vlan1)
VM2 (vlan 1)
VM3 (vlan 2)

The goal is to have VM1, VM2, and VM4 be able to talk to each other,
but not VM3. VM ports are access mode, so VMs do not have VLAN
knowledge.

My question is how to setup openflow flows to achieve these. I can see
the use of SET_VLAN_ID, OUTPUT, STRIP_VLAN_ID actions in this case,
but couldn't figure out how FLOOD_ACTIONS can be used here. Do I need
to configure STP in order to use FLOOD? Will openvswitch automatically
learn which ports to flood in ARP broadcast case? Or I need explicitly
specify which ports to forward for vlan1, etc?

Thank you!
Yimin
