主题: Whether ovs can support LLDP in the specific scenario?

Hi All

I have a question about whether ovs will have a schedule to support LLDP by any way, like app or plugin? Because We have a scenario that needs LLDP capability in ovs. In the following figure, assuming there's no controller, only two ovs which seperately has one attached vm. there's a physcial switch connecting to the server. Now We hope ovs can actively announce its switching capabilities to outside physical switch and let physical switch know the ovs inside and the topology in the server.

if ovs plans to support lldp in the future, is there a schedule? or if doesn't plan to do it, is there any other method that can use in our scenario?

Thank you!
