As I see it you have one (1) host running three VMs and want to connect them with the same broadcast domain like a switch.
Since you are using SR-IOV you have virtual NICs of the same physical NIC, maybe someone who has worked with it can tell us if the virtual NICs of SR-IOV share or doesn’t the same broadcast domain. Anyone?

Yes, the host is Linux. The VMs are already connected without the OVS I want to create a topology such that communication goes via OVS in VM3.

I don't understand the deployment scenario that you're describing. However, OVS can connect VMs in arbitrary topologies. --Justin _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list disc...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss -- Yi Tseng (a.k.a Takeshi) Taiwan National Chiao Tung University Department of Computer Science W2CNLab https://takeshi.tw
