Thanks Dominik, I will check on the ORB configuration first, I know that different hardware switches have a maximum number of VLANs that can by active. I will also see if there's a limit in the linux-bridge or libvirt.
I was going to look at ovirt-provider-ovn next but when I upgraded our engine it failed to configure it therefore I left it out since we weren't using it. Regards, Paul S. P.S. 0x000 and 0xFFF are reserved to the maximum is 4094 ________________________________________ From: Dominik Holler <dhol...@redhat.com> Sent: 12 October 2018 09:00 To: Staniforth, Paul Cc: users@ovirt.org; Petr Horacek Subject: Re: [ovirt-users] How Many Logical networks supported On Thu, 11 Oct 2018 11:31:04 -0000 p.stanifo...@leedsbeckett.ac.uk wrote: > Hello, > We are currently using oVirt for teaching and one of our > requirements is for security such as IR PEN testing etc. We would like to > create individual logical networks with a network profile that includes port > mirroring, this is to reduce the amount of traffic they can see and the > targets available. > > We are looking to to add VMs into Affinity Groups so they will run on the > same host to make the port-mirror work but don't no if there is a limit on > the number of logical networks that is allowed/practical. > I am not aware that oVirt is limiting the number of logical networks. Beside the 4096 VLANs which are technically allowed. But I ensure check if the boot and configuration times are acceptable, if many logical networks are used. I would be interested to know if using OVN via ovirt-provider-ovn is helping to speed up boot and configuration times. But I expect port-mirroring is more complex in OVN. > Thanks, > Regards, > Paul S. > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ > oVirt Code of Conduct: > https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ > List Archives: > https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/HL53NTRMFTJAZ23N7FNQOXBBWXLBUS7N/ To view the terms under which this email is distributed, please go to:- http://disclaimer.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/disclaimer/disclaimer.html _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users@ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/VVVPCLMXQFQ4QVULRECFGBRPSIB4QCUP/
