On RHEl, I followed all the instruction to use openvswitch as a drop-in replacement for the Linux bridge. Nevertheless, I get this error when I try to add a bridge:
brctl addbr br0 add bridge failed: No such process But everything needed is loaded ps -auxx | grep ovs root 1390 0.0 0.1 39552 1876 ?

The original bridge kernel module is not loaded. I think that this is correct. I can give you the credentials if you want to take a look at this. I am suing Scientific Linux 6.0, which is identical to RHEL 6.0. My goal is to open tunnel to another network, after this works fine. Yours Federico
