This requirement crosses the line into physical space and needing to know about some physical environment details, so reading from the southbound DB for this info is acceptable. > Also, do you have any link to describe the ongoing work in OVN to sync the > "ovn-bridge-mapping" from hypervisor? This patch introduces some new tables to the southbound DB: http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-March/068112.html I was thinking that we would be able to read the physical endpoints table to get what we need, but now I'm thinking it may not fit our use case. The alternative would be to just store the bridge mappings as an external_id on the Chassis record in the southbound database. How quickly is this needed? -- Russell Bryant
