Ben and I already responded to this on the openflow-discuss mailing list: https://mailman.stanford.edu/pipermail/openflow-discuss/2011-May/002183.html The short answer for others is that one can use the "tc" command, directly interface with the QoS and Queue tables in the database, or f

Hi all, Currently, we use ovs to be the vSwitch in OpenNebula and work properly after loading kernel module ovs-brcompatd. If we are right, we must load ovs-brcompatd, the vm tool virt-manager could manage VMs smoothly. If we don't do this, that is, we create bridge from ovs command, virt-manager
