Hi,

I'm currently trying out the hardware VTEP emulator that came with OVS
v2.1.2 and wanted to check if I correctly understand how it works:

1. I use OVS to create and manage a bridge which will serve as the fake VTEP

2. the python script ovs-vtep synchronizes that fake VTEP with whatever
gets written to the hardware_vtep database (since OVS has no idea of the
latter)

Below is a link to a diagram I created after reading the documentation. Is
this correct?

NOTE: I'm instantiating the host via Vagrant + VirtualBox which uses eth0
by default for SSH access. I wanted to leave that alone which is why I have
eth1 for management (host-only networking) and eth2 for data (internal
networking). No controller listening on the management network (yet).

Regards,

Mark
