I was looking at the release candidate of libvirt (0.9.11-rc2) and I have not
been able to understand if the openvswitch support includes the port tagging
support.
If your question is "Whether it is possible to specify VLAN tag in
Domain XML file" then the answer is "No".
But, you can always invoke ovs-vsctl manually to add a tag
to the VM's interface after it was already created (if this is
an option to you).
It is possible to do that adding vlanid=number in the virtualport definition
and translating it with ovs-vsctl --tag=number in virdnetevopenvswitch.c .
Do you think that a patch that includes this functionality would be accepted?
Thanks,
Daniele
So my question is: is it possible to create a tagged port? How?
Otherwise, would it be useful to add this functionality?
Thanks,
Daniele Milani
