ok. Please, for the record, could you reply to your thread in the
list saying what the problem was and how you fixed it?
Thanks

I had a configuration error that was causing my interfaces to not come up
properly. Here's what ifcfg-br0 looked like, with the error line commented
out.
DEVICE="br0"
ONBOOT="yes"
DEVICETYPE="ovs"
TYPE="OVSBridge"
BOOTPROTO="none"
HOTPLUG="no"
#OVS_OPTIONS="tag=100"
Not sure why this failed, but I have the information in ifcfg-vlan100
DEVICE=vlan100
ONBOOT=yes
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSIntPort
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=10.1.4.2
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
OVS_BRIDGE=br0
OVS_OPTIONS="tag=100"
HOTPLUG=no
I haven't yet discovered how to make sure this part is right and that the
vlan tags are getting applied as I expect. But I do see this output:
# ifconfig vlan100
vlan100 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 4E:5F:E9:7B:31:CE
inet addr:10.1.4.2 Bcast:10.1.4.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

Still moving forward.
Thanks for the great list and thanks to Flavio Leitner for taking time to
help.
