Hello,

Sorry, I forgot to mention that point.  I have the kmod compiled and loaded:

lsmod | grep openvswitch:

openvswitch            92457  0 

 uname -a; ls /lib/modules/3.4.36-6.el6.centos.alt.x86_64/kernel/extra/openvswitch/openvswitch.ko:

Linux localhost 3.4.36-6.el6.centos.alt.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Mar 15 17:07:18 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

numbers

You are probably encountering a problem explained in the FAQ:

If you are using Open vSwitch 1.9 or an earlier version, then you
need to be using the kernel module bundled with Open vSwitch rather
than the one that is integrated into Linux 3.3 and later, because
Open vSwitch 1.9 and earlier versions need kernel support for patch
ports. This also means that in Open vSwitch 1.9 and earlier, patch
ports will not work with the userspace datapath, only with the
kernel module.
