Hi, I am using OVS (v1.10) switches in my OpenFlow testbed, and I want to configure theirs buffers remotely by controller. I installed OVS on the controller too. It has only one port: eth0 10.0.0.1/24
On the switch that I want to configure remotely I used this commands: ovs-vsctl add-br br0 ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth1 ifconfig eth0 10.0.0.2 netmask 255.255.255.0 up # this interface I didn't use in br definition ovs-vsctl set-manager ptcp:10.0.0.1:6633 On the controller side I used: ovs-vsctl --db=tcp:10.0.0.2 show but I didn't succeed to connect. This is message I got: ovs-vsctl --db=tcp:10.0.0.2 show 2014-04-01T10:34:45Z|00001|reconnect|WARN|tcp:10.0.0.2: connection attempt failed (No route to host) ovs-vsctl: tcp:10.0.0.2: database connection failed () I can ping controller from switch. Clearly I am doing something wrong, so please help.
