Hi list,
I've been looking around the web for QinQ support in Ovirt. I see that QinQ is
supported in CentOS
6.x and above. However I cannot see any documented support in Ovirt. I've come across
the page
below which details QinQ as a future feature.
Is QinQ still a future feature, or is it possible to use QinQ with Ovirt today somehow?

Siggi

However, we would love to understand your use case (do you want to
tunnel VM traffic within QinQ? why?)
I believe you can use network custom properties and
before/after_network_setup hookpoint in order to tinker with this
yourself.
Regards,
Dan.

Ok. Thanks for your quick response. Sorry for my late reply back :)
I had a request to have multiple concurrent labs of testing end point equipment which
required to see a vlan trunk having the exact same vlan numbers across all the labs. The
vlans coming from each lab had to be mapped to different vms. The different lab networks
could not be joined. This required adding the vlan trunk from each lab into a qinq trunk
which connects to the same hypervisor. Or using networking equipment having the ability to
rewrite the vlans of the lab vlan trunks into other vlan numbers before they reach the
hypervisor.
Regards,
Siggi

You would be better off using something like openvswtich and vxlan's for
your purpose. oVirt does support OpenStack Networking... which will give
you what you are looking for in a lab env... tenant networks
