Can anyone advise?
ovn-sim provides a sandbox environment (which internally uses the ovs-sim) to test out OVN. This sandbox environment uses OVS dummy datapath. I don't think you can use a netns and send ping or actual traffic. If you want to try OVN, I'd suggest you either deploy OVN in some virtual environment or use ovn-fake-multinode - https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn-fake-multinode With ovn-fake-multinode you can create netns as fake VMs. The initial startup script of ovn-fake-multinode does create these resources for the testing.
