( I know the item 5 ) are they all the bridge ? Not all of them are bridges, and also brctl will show only linux bridges. For example br-int is an OvS bridge. The out put of the brctl show appears only the ovirtmgmt and ;vdsmdummy' are bridge. [root@host1 ~]# brctl show bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces ;vdsmdummy; 8000.000000000000 no ovirtmgmt 8000.080027944de8 no enp0s3 [root@host1 ~]# Let us know if you have any further questions.
