As for whether it can be done on a single host, I suppose if you were to use 2 separate bridges for physical connectivity along with 2 separate bridges for the tunnels, it might work. I've never tried it, though, so this is just conjecture. > Shravan > > On 10 January 2017 at 23:33, Scott Lowe <scott.l...@scottlowe.org > <mailto:scott.l...@scottlowe.org>> wrote: > > Please see my response below. > > > On 01/10/2017 02:26 AM, Shravan S K wrote: > > Is it possible to create a VXLAN setup using just bridges created by > > OVS?
