Hello,

I use Sen as my virtualisation plateform for quite a while now. Love it.
I almost only use bridged networking. All my setup are using Linux bridge-utils te achieve this. I see people talking about openvswitch, most of them seems to agree to say that it's a lot better than brctl... I have no particular problem with brctl but am realy wondering in which case openvswitch is better? What does it allow to do that cannot be done with legacy bridge tools?

Regards.
