I tested this 4 ways:
Using a linux bridge, using
<interface type='direct'> <source dev='br0' mode='bridge'/>
Using a linux bridge, using
<interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='br0'/><virtualport
type='openvswitch''>
Using an ovs bridge, using
<interface type='direct'> <source dev='ovsbr1' mode='bridge'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch''>
Using an ovs bridge, using
<interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='ovsbr1'/><virtualport
type='openvswitch''>
Only the ovs bridge with type='direct' failed to ping its ipv6 gateway
(fc00::1 for me).
The fact that type='direct' works with a linux bridge and not with an
ovs bridge is interesting.
