Description of problem:
The default configuration of OVS bridge (unlike linux bridge) is to disable multicast snooping. That may case excess multicast traffic flowing into the pod without being filtered by ovn-kubernetes localnet bridge. To avoid this, OCPBUGS-54909 proposes change to the examples in our docs - to guide users to enable snoop filtering by default. Our localnet tests should use this attribute too.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.15+
How reproducible:
Always, test coverage out of sync
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to our T2 tests
Actual results:
They cover localnet on top of a dedicated OVS bridge without any snooping configuration
Expected results:
Multicast snoop filtering should be enabled. See OCPBUGS-54909 to know how
Additional info:
Update (Yossi Segev 2025-Apr-15): Updating the tests should be done both in polarion and in automation.
