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

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.
