Then the question is why did eth0 IP address get reset ? Did you use dhcp
to host ip ?

> Hello,
> I am trying to deploy a testbed using the tutorial mentioned in
> http://archive.openflow.org/wp/deploy-labsetup/. I have five PCs, among
> them I want to use one PC as a controller, two PCs as switches and two PCs
> as hosts. The two PCs which I want to use as switches have three ethernet
> interfaces. One interface is used to connect with the controller and the
> other two interfaces are used as switch ports according to the tutorial. I
> installed openvswitch1.1.0pre2.tar.gz package on them. The two PCs for
> switches and the controller PC are connected with a switch(hub). Following
> are my configurations:
> i) The controller PC has the IP 192.168.0.100/24 and started the POX
> controller with L2 learning switch module using the command ./pox.py
> log.level --DEBUG forwarding.l2_learning
> ii) One of the PC used for switch has configured in the following manner:
>     a) IP of ethernet interface eth0: 192.168.0.1/24. I am able to ping
> the controller PC.
>     b) Create a datapath using the command: sudo ./utilities/ovs-dpctl
> add-dp dp0.
>     c) Then added the rest two interfaces using the command: sudo
> ./utilities/ovs-dpctl add-if dp0 eth1 (one more time for adding eth2)
>     d) Then tried to connect the controller using the command: sudo
> ./utilities/ovs-openflowd dp0 --datapath-id=00000023208BA290
> tcp:192.168.0.100 port 6633 --out-of-band
>
> However I could not get connect with the controller. The issue, I figured
> out, is that the when I create a datapath dp0, the switch PC's interface
> eth0 IP address gets reset. I checked it with ifconfig and it shows no IP
> address for any interface and I am not able to ping the controller after
> that. Here is the topology diagram. All of the these machines are VMs
> created over ESXi host and connected through VM Networks.
