I haven't used the auto discovery, but I use:
ovs-vsctl set-controller br0 tcp:192.168.1.100:6633
...where br0 is the name of my virtual bridge and 192.168.1.100 is the
IP address I assigned to the virtual bridge using ifconfig.
My controller listens locally on port 6633.

where it tries to connect to?
from openflow spec 1.0, I found:

does it mean current openflow switch could only connect to
specified address? if so, what's vswitchd way?
