After installing XEN and few VM's running, I have following interfaces:

xenbr0, vif1.0...., and virbr0.

Now, I can compile openvswitch from tar ball.  From what I understand, I
can replace - the xen bridge with openvswitch bridge ? but I am not sure,
if that allows me to enable openflow ?

Basically, I want to know - what is the next step to do after compiling
openvswitch ?  I am able to run openvswitch with nox on linux with multiple
physical ports.

Thanks a lot,
Vishal
