[ovs-discuss] Fwd: open vswitch configuration

[ahmad numan]

I want to isolate the traffic of the interfaces. I want to use vswitch to do
so. Is there any possibility that i can isolate the interfaces using OVS?

My idea was to implement VLAN as done in documentation of OVS (Configuration
codebook -> VLANs). But I can not use virtual machines.
