Thanks Dominik,
I will check on the ORB configuration first, I know that
different hardware switches have a maximum number of VLANs that can by active. I will also
see if there's a limit in the linux-bridge or libvirt.
I was going to look at ovirt-provider-ovn next but when I upgraded our engine it failed to
configure it therefore I left it out since we weren't using it.
Regards,
Paul S.
P.S. 0x000 and 0xFFF are reserved to the maximum is 4094

Hello,
We are currently using oVirt for teaching and one of our requirements is for
security such as IR PEN testing etc. We would like to create individual logical networks
with a network profile that includes port mirroring, this is to reduce the amount of
traffic they can see and the targets available.
We are looking to to add VMs into Affinity Groups so they will run on the same host to
make the port-mirror work but don't no if there is a limit on the number of logical
networks that is allowed/practical.
I am not aware that oVirt is limiting the number of logical networks.
Beside the 4096 VLANs which are technically allowed.
But I ensure check if the boot and configuration times are acceptable,
if many logical networks are used.
I would be interested to know if using OVN via ovirt-provider-ovn is
helping to speed up boot and configuration times. But I expect
port-mirroring is more complex in OVN.
Thanks,

Paul S.
