Is it possible to bind an Openvswitch bridge with two different interfaces?

I'm starting to "play" with openvswitch and networking staff so I am a little bit newbie. I'm trying to have the following implementation as it depicted in this figure: implementation

Both interfaces are physical with a private IP assignement. *The enO interface is a managament interface

I use this to create the ovs-bridge

ovs-vsctl add-br ovsBr
ip add add 192.168.200.1/24 dev ovsBr

What should I do next?

Thank you in advance

Solution

  • If it's an educational task of sorts, then I believe one may not suggest a correct solution without seeing the textual description of the task. However, if you need to create a bridge and add enp6s0f1 and enp6s0f2 to it, then you probably want to do the following:

    ovs-vsctl add-br ovsBr
ovs-vsctl add-port ovsBr enp6s0f1
ovs-vsctl add-port ovsBr enp6s0f2
