Hello,


I have downloaded OpenvSwitch-2.3.1, Cross Compiled it for PowerPC platform
[Linux 3-8.13] .  I have downloaded the executables and running  following
executable –



1461      0       0       S       ./ovsdb-server --verbose
--remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock
--remote=db:Open_vSwitch,Open_vSwitch,manager_options --pidfile --detach

1512      0       0       S       ./ovs-vswitchd --verbose --pidfile –detach



Now, I am trying to  establish the Channel between the switch and
 OpenDayLight [distribution-karaf-0.2.3-Helium-SR3 ] so that I can manage
my switch via Daylight. I have following questions –



1.       In my switch, I do have any bridge interface (in linux kernel on
physical switch ). So, is there a way to setup  controller IP address
without bridge.CLI --  ovs-vsctl set-controller BRIDGE TARGET  -- requires
BRIDGE as one of the parameter.

Is there a workaround for this ?



2.       What is  CLI -- ovs-vsctl set-manager --  command for ?  Which
this CLI (with my controller IP set-manager tcp:192.168.222.100:6640 ), I
can see my switch on OpenDayLight  under ‘Connection Manager’ tab. What is
this for and it this channel also use OpenFlow/OF-CONFIG protocol ?



Basically, what I want is to program my physical-switch from DayLight using
OF-CONFIG. I am not too much interested in OpenFlow & related flow tables
at the moment. Please guide me…



Thanks

Vipin Garg
