Sorry to bring this up again.  I can't really get it to work with the
following command.

$ ovs-vsctl -- add-br vlan-br -- add-port vlan-br vlan-br tag=10 --
add-port vlan-br eth1
ovs-vsctl: cannot create a port named vlan-br because a bridge named
vlan-br already exists

It does work if the middle part is add-port vlan-br vlan-br-tag tag=10
but that's not really what I want.  I want something with an actual
interface which I can attach an IP address to and send traffic
through.

I'm ready to push except for this issue.  I could push it right now
with the middle command being set Port vlan-br tag=10 . I can do that
now and we can hash out why it's not working later.  Or I can hold
off.

Ethan
