[ovs-discuss] Local Port with kernel bridges

Hi,

I am facing some strange issue, which I am not sure if is an expected behavior. When ovs switch is stopped (using service openvswitch-switch stop), the LOCAL ports belonging to the kernel bridges are not deleted and are still visible through ifconfig -a command. Is this expected behavior ?

The same is not true for 'netdev' type bridges. The LOCAL port gets deleted when switch is stopped, and gets recreated when switch restarts.

Regards,
Vishal
