Hi Ahmed,

Not sure if it is related to your issue, but I have a similar issue when I try to attach a WLAN NIC to OVS (when it is not used as a AP).
I sent this mail to the list last month but I don't have any reply back.

Hi,

I have been using hostapd and openvswitch patch on my server side for a year with no issue. I am wondering if there is any patch for wpa_supplicant and openvswitch for my client side?

In fact, when I try to add my wireless port into openvswtich bridge I don't have any error but I am not able to retrieve any IP address and I am pretty sure a similar issue patched in hostapd side.

Many thanks,
------------------------------------------------------------------------

So I confirm that when the WLAN NIC is connected as an AP (with hostapd) it is working very well (in the past I needed a patch but not anymore at least for the Parabola/Archlinux where they compile OVS with the patch included).

But on my laptop with OVS running, if I put my WLAN NIC on the bridge I am not able to communicate anymore, no error but no traffic either...

Hi,

I'm trying to do this kind of architecture :

                       wlan0              wlan1

Node1---------------------------OVS-----------------------------------Node2



ip address :

wlan0 :192.168.4.1

Node1: 192.168.4.10

wlan1: 192.168.4.2

Node2: 192.168.4.20

each network : node1-------------wlan0 and node2--------------wlan1 has it's proper ssid (they are physically dissociated) but are in the same ip network 192.168.4.0


-  When link are in ad-hoc mode :

When i have associated the two interfaces wlan0 and wlan1 as port to the ovs, i can't communicate the two node with each other,


- But when i put wlan0 and wlan1 as access point (and associated to the ovs) and Node1 and Node2 as client, the two node can ping each other in this case,

I don't understand the problem could you please explain what is happening,

Thanks,
