Just so I understand correctly - the 802.1Qbg standard requires using a VLAN, but the vepa implementation doesn't have that restriction, so it is still okay for someone using a vepa switch to not use a VLAN. Correct?

And it's already up on the website! Is the website content constantly refreshed directly from git? (I had assumed it was being updated at each release...)

I don't know if it's a commit trigger (instant) or just an hourly cron job, but in my experience, all doc edits do show up online within an hour of the git push. -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
