Thanks for the pointer, this seems to work. For the records, this is how I succeeded to add a virtual link between two bridges: # ovs-vsctl add-br br0 # ovs-vsctl add-br br1 # ip link add name link0 type veth peer name link1 # ovs-vsctl add-port br0 link0 # ovs-vsctl add-port br1 link1 >> semi-related: I noticed, OVS supports OpenFlow 1.0 only, however there >> are OF 1.1 proof of concept implementations for OF 1.1 in OVS on [1].

Too bad, I'd like to experiment with OF 1.1 fast failover groups. -- Arno Töll GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
