Has anyone ever tried putting a vSwtich in a Pod and connecting it up with meshnet? How did you do it?

If this is something meshnet can't do, why not?

(thinking about new features here)

I've done a lot of the tests with what can be described as vSwitch (cEOS, Cumulus Linux etc)
did you mean any specific kind of vSwitch?

I was thinking Open vSwitch, but I really don't have any specific capabilities other than having layer 2 switching available over meshnet links. Clearly veth/vxlan can do this but I haven't put any time at all into trying to configure something with meshnet.

Also, the ability to build layer 2 segments across multiple pods (i.e., an Ethernet hub) would be useful for some things.
