Hi again!

I followed the instructions in INSTALL.SSL.md

1)created the PKI structure by

ovs-pki init

2)created the private key and certificates for ovsdb-client and server

 % ovs-pki req+sign ctl controller
 % ovs-pki req+sign sc switch

3)copied controllerca/cacert.pem , sc-privkey.pem and sc-cert.pem to the
 host on which the ovsdb server is running
4)copied switch/cacert.pem , ctl-privkey.pem and ctl-cert.pem to the
host on which the ovsdb client is running

5) started a pssl connection on the ovsdb-server

ovsdb-server --remote=pssl:6640:server_ip --private-key=(path to
sc-privkey.pem) --certificate=(path to sc-cert.pem) --ca-cert=(path to
ca-cert.pem)

6)Finally, i started an ssl connection on the ovsdb-client

ovsdb-client ssl:server_ip:6640 <http://10.107.48.193:6640> --private-key=(path
to ctl-privkey.pem) --certificate=(path to ctl-cert.pem) --ca-cert=(path to
ca-cert.pem) dump


However, I'm getting the following error:


2016-06-06T10:03:58Z|00001|stream_ssl|INFO|Trusting CA cert from

ovsdb-client: failed to connect to "ssl:server_ip:6640" (Protocol error)

What is causing this error? How to correct this?

Thanks once more
