Hi Ben, Passive tcp socket should be fine. I know the ptcp option lets you do this. But I am not sure which command to use it with. For eg: I use the unix socket option with ovsdb-server command so that vswitchd can connect to teh database server. Now, ofctl needs to connect to the switch. So, which command do I use the ptcp option with so that the switch is listening on a tcp port that ofctl can connect to. Right now, when i do an ofctl show tcp:127.0.0.1, i get a connection refused error.
