Thanks for previous suggestion.
No connectiving between VMs connected to differnet open vswitch bridges.
I use patch port to connect two open vswitch bridges "switch1" & "switch2"
using the following commad
ovs-vsctl add-port switch1 patch_cable_12 -- set Interface patch_cable_12
type=patch options:peer=patch_cable_21
ovs-vsctl add-port switch2 patch_cable_21 -- set Interface patch_cable_21
type=patch options:peer=patch_cable_12
Now two VMs connected to switch1 and switch2 can't ping each other.
Any suggestion please..

Subject: [ovs-discuss] How to connect two open vswitch bridges in a single
physical host ?
Dear All,
I want to create three open vswitches to connect in a circle
to evaluate STP protcol. I want to do this on a single physical host. I am
using Virtual Box on Ubuntu 10.10.
How to connect two open vswitch togather? I create TUN interface using the ip
tuntap command, but when I add the same TUN interface to the second switch, I
got the error:cannot create a port named vmif_sw12 because a port named
vmif_sw12 already exists on bridge switch1. It does not allow to add that TUN
interface to the second switch. Please suggest any solution.
Thanks in advance....
