Openvswitch: multiple virtual bridges over one bonding interface

Question

My ultimate goal is to configure a RedHat 6.6 server with Openvswitch as shown in the following image:

Interfaces configuratión files are:

ifcfg-eth0

DEVICE=eth0
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
BOOTPROTO=none

ifcfg-eth1

DEVICE=eth1
ONBOOT=yes
NM_CONTROLLED=no
BOOTPROTO=none

ifcfg-bond0

DEVICE=bond0
BONDING_OPS="mode=4 miimon=500"
DELAY=0
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSBond
OVS_BRIDGE=virbr0 
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
NM_CONTROLLED=no
HOTPLUG=no
OVS_OPTIONS="bond_mode=balance-tcp lacp=active"
BOND_IFACES="eth0 eth1"

ifcg-virbr0

DEVICE=virbr0
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSBridge
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DELAY=0
HOTPLUG=no

I don't know how associate multiple virtual bridge to one bonding interface. When I define bonding interface can only specify a virtual bridge. I need define a virtual bridge for each group of virtual machines.

If this is not possible, that strategy can go on to isolate traffic from each group of virtual machines?

Thanks!

A workaround is use patch port to connect multiple virtual bridges:

ifcfg-virbr0

DEVICE=virbr0
DEVICETYPE=ovs    
TYPE=OVSBridge
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DELAY=0
HOTPLUG=no

ifcfg-virbr1

DEVICE=virbr1
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSBridge
ONBOOT=yes
BOOTPROTO=none
NM_CONTROLLED=no
DELAY=0
HOTPLUG=no

ifcfg-patch1-0

DEVICE=patch1-0
ONBOOT=yes
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSPatchPort
OVS_BRIDGE=virbr1
OVS_PATCH_PEER=patch0-1

ifcfg-patch0-1

DEVICE=patch0-1
ONBOOT=yes
DEVICETYPE=ovs
TYPE=OVSPatchPort
OVS_BRIDGE=virbr0
OVS_PATCH_PEER=patch1-0

Maximun patch port is 5

ovs-vsctl show
Bridge "virbr0"
    Port "virbr0"
        Interface "virbr0"
            type: internal
    Port "patch0-1"
        Interface "patch0-1"
            type: patch
            options: {peer="patch1-0"}
Bridge "virbr1"
    Port "bond0"
        Interface "eth0"
        Interface "eth1"
    Port "patch1-0"
        Interface "patch1-0"
            type: patch
            options: {peer="patch0-1"}
    Port "virbr1"
        Interface "virbr1"
            type: internal
