[ovs-discuss] OVS configuration using existing bridge configuration

Hello all!

relatively new to OpenStack and OVS, had a single server setup (all serves on a single node) several months ago but lost touch and time to continue R&D. Now that I have some spare clock cycles I am looking to configure OS with OVS to use our existing network configuration:

bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
br10            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.10
br100           8000.80c16e80b9b4       no              eth1.100
br101           8000.80c16e80b9b4       no              eth1.101
br102           8000.80c16e80b9b4       no              eth1.102
br11            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.11
br12            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.12
br13            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.13

br25            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.25
br26            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.26
br42            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.42

br51            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.51
br52            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.52
br53            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.53
br6             8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.6
br8             8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.8
br9             8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.9
br97            8000.80c16e80b9b0       no              eth0.97
virbr0          8000.52540022714e       yes             virbr0-nic

What would be the simplest way to inject OVS in this configuration so that VM's within OS can utilize bridges as assigned

Thanks

-Ron
