hi dear all!
is fake-bridge just devised for the ports in with the same vlan tag in
real-bridge?

i make it like this:
ovs-vsctl add-br br0
ovs-vsctl add-br br1 br0 2
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth1(connecting with host 1,172.16.0.1)

ifconfig br0 172.16.0.10
ifconfig br1 172.16.0.11

it succeeded when host 1 pings br1,i can understand because br1 is an
"internal" port which just works as a host with an IP connecting to the
real-bridge.

but when i set port br1 tag=100,host 1 can still ping with br1 . how does
fake-bridge itself communicate with real-bridge?

then i make br1 and eth1 in the same vlan,but br0 in another,why host 1
failed to ping br1?
