Each row in this table represents a named group of logical switch
ports.
Port groups may be used in the match column of the ACL table. For
syntax information, see the details of the expression language
used for the match column in the Logical_Flow table of the
OVN_Southbound database.
For each port group, there are two address sets generated to the
Address_Set table of the OVN_Southbound database, containing the
IP addresses of the group of ports, one for IPv4, and the other
for IPv6, with name being the name of the Port_Group followed by
a suffix _ip4 for IPv4 and _ip6 for IPv6. The generated address
sets can be used in the same way as regular address sets in the
match column of the ACL table. For syntax information, see the
details of the expression language used for the match column in
the Logical_Flow table of the OVN_Southbound database.
Summary:
name string (must be unique within
table)
ports set of weak reference to
Logical_Switch_Ports
acls set of ACLs
Common Columns:
external_ids map of string-string pairs
Details:
name: string (must be unique within table)
A name for the port group. Names are ASCII and must match
[a-zA-Z_.][a-zA-Z_.0-9]*.
ports: set of weak reference to Logical_Switch_Ports
The logical switch ports belonging to the group in uuids.
acls: set of ACLs
Access control rules that apply to the port group.
Applying an ACL to a port group has the same effect as
applying the ACL to all logical lswitches that the ports
of the port group belong to.
Common Columns:
external_ids: map of string-string pairs
See External IDs at the beginning of this document.
