Vdsm exposes a per bridge STP knob that you can use for this. By default it is set to false, which is probably why you had to use this shenanigan. You can, for instance: # show present state [vagrant@vdsm ~]$ ip a 1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN group default qlen 1000 link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00 inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:41:fb:37 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff 3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:00:83:5b:6f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.50.50/24 brd 192.168.50.255 scope global noprefixroute eth1 valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever inet6 fe80::5054:ff:fe83:5b6f/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever 19: ;vdsmdummy;: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN group default qlen 1000 link/ether 8e:5c:2e:87:fa:0b brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff # show example bridge configuration - you're looking for the STP knob here.
