Is this the right way?
vSwitch is one part, OpenFlow is another. ovsdb-client connects to ovsdb server. It uses JSON-RPC as method. Using ovsdb you can control OVS itself ie connect disconnect ports, bonding etc, nor control flows table. Open vSwitch can be controlled using OpenFlow. Since you set up controller, then controller will be responsible to control flows in OVS. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
