Thanks Guru:

Would you know which document would contain all the "OVS" specific parameters

Much Thanks

Also,
There is an expectation that the underlying port is configured.
So during system startup, when the ifcfg-eth* is run, it will call its bridge's 
ifup script and dhcp configuration happens.
