Thanks for working on adding support for this. In addition to Mark Michelson's comment about IPv6 support, I think that it is important to document how aging works. I guess that ovn/ovn-sb.xml, in the MAC_Binding table, is the right way to do that. There is already a description of the lifetime of a MAC binding, and aging could naturally be added to it. I haven't reviewed the code in this patch yet. I guess that having the documentation will make it easier to review, so I'll wait for that. Thanks, Ben. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
