Hi experts:
I don't see parameter to specify IP/Port of openflow controller for vswitchd connect in, How vswitchd find controller? auto discovery?
    by

    ovs-vswitchd ofproto/list

    output:

Dec 09 21:32:22|00001|reconnect|INFO|ofproto/list: connecting...
Dec 09 21:32:22|00002|reconnect|WARN|ofproto/list: connection attempt failed (Address family not supported by protocol) Dec 09 21:32:22|00003|reconnect|INFO|ofproto/list: waiting 1 seconds before reconnect

    where it tries to connect to?

    from openflow spec 1.0, I found:

>>Future versions of the protocol specification will describe a dynamic controller >>discovery protocol in which the IP address and port for communicating with
>>the controller is determined at runtime.

does it mean current openflow switch could only connect to specified address? if so, what's vswitchd way?
