If you need bridge compatibility, use the - kernel module from the Open vSwitch distribution instead of the - upstream Linux kernel module. - - Tunnel virtual ports, that is, interfaces with type "gre", "ipsec_gre", "capwap". It is possible to create tunnels in Linux and attach them to Open vSwitch as system devices.
