Hi, The vswitchd documentation mentions the ptcp option so that the switch can listen on a port. But when I actually do the following:
ovs-vswitchd tcp:127.0.0.1:6633 ptcp:6634 --pidfile --detach, I get an error saying ovs-vswitchd: database socket is only non-option argument Also, when i do an ovs-vswitchd --help, none of the listening options for vswitchd are displayed. 1. How should the ptcp option mentioned in the documentation be used? I want to use this so that I can connect to the switch via ofctl from another machine. 2. If vswitchd can be used with this option, how should ofctl connect to it. While using ofctl on the same machine, I just use ovs-ofctl show <path to br0.mgmt> (In use a teh unix socket for the same machine). From a remote host, I do: ovs-ofctl show tcp:>ip>:<port> . Is this correct? Thanks in advance for your help.
