At present TCP and SSL are the two transport mechanism defined by OpenFlow standard for Controller to Switch communication. Wireless (Wi-Fi) may also be a candidate for Transport between switch and controller. In this scenario, both Switch and Controller need to implement 802.1x. Switch acts a

Sorry, I may actually be comparing apples to oranges; my reference is an 802.1x-capable hardware switch, for example an HP ProCurve 2600 2800 series. Admittedly I do not know a lot about the openvswitch project so I may not have a clear view of how all the pieces go together. When I was research

I'm just saying that if you mess with your hypervisor init scripts, don't be surprised when things start breaking. I was pointing out areas where you might expect to see failures first. Using the existing tools the hypervisor provides is likely to be less disruptive. -Reid On Fri, Sep 20, 20

If controller acts as the 802.1x acts as the authenticator, the switch will be the supplicant that gets authenticated. In that case , switch may need to implement the 802.1x supplicant. Thanks -ns murthy From: discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org [mailto:discuss-boun...@openvswitch.org] On Behalf Of
