Hello Jiri, I'd appreciate any comments on this from your side.
In particular I'm interested if there are any differences when the bridge
is configured by brctl or iproute - do they change any of the bridge
defaults, is there difference in bridge port settings?
Additionally, does this change impact any of Mellanox testing? I'd like
to avoid any breakage.
Thanks,
Jan
