Dear all,
I have the following situation:
-I replaced the standard bridge driver with the Open VSwitch one;
-I started a NAT-network on Libvirt (bridge name virbr1);
-I started a Virtual Machine (VM1) on Libvirt, and I tagged his interface (vnet0) with tag=2;
-if I run "# ovs-vsctl show" I obtain:
Bridge "virbr1"
Port "vnet0"
tag: 2
Interface "vnet0"
Port "virbr1-nic"
Interface "virb1-nic"
Port "virbr1"
Interface "virbr1"
type: internal
-the problem is that it is impossible to assign to VM1 an IP, because the dnsmasq daemon does not accept the tagged DHCP Discover frame.
Does someone know if there is a way for dnsmasq to accept tagged frames through "virbr1", and send a tagged DHCP Offer packet back to VM1?
I believe you would need to run dedicated dnsmasq process instance per each VLAN that you have. By
default I guess dnsmasq runs on virbr1, hence it does not see the tagged traffic that comes from vnet0.
You could try to:

You could try to:
- add another port to that bridge with the same VLAN as VM has. And run a separate instance of dnsmasq there; or
- change the tag of virb1 port, but this might lead to other issues (e.g. then non-tagged VMs will not get DHCP leases).
