[ovs-dev] How to apply rate limit on flooding.

[abhishek.labh at wipro.com]

Hi,


Currently for normal rule when destination address is not found in mac table packet is flooded to all ports connected to bridge except incoming port. So if incoming traffic is coming with high rate then flooding rate is maximum which reduced performance of the sysyem. So  is there any functionality in ovs to apply rate limiting on  flooding? Can we apply any Qos policy?.


Thanks & Reagrds,
