Re: [pox-dev] Problems with the connection with ovs
Do you have other things plugged into the hubs? Even with the topology you have, it looks like something strange is happening. What has the MAC 00:0c:ce:1f:10:1d and where is it connected? -- Murphy On Apr 18, 2013, at 8:44 AM, Mayumi Park Campos wrote: Thanks for the answer I think I know where me problem is 'cause I use a real Ethernet switch to connect the controller and ovs in the same LAN and two hubs to connect the hosts to the switch. 192.168.0.0/24 - ___ --- -- | POX | | Eth Sw|| OVS | - -- / \ / \ _/ \___ | | - --- |Hub | |Hub | - -- | | 10.0.0.0/24 10.0.1.0/24 | | - --- | Host 1 | | Host 2 | --- So if I get it right I have to remove the hubs and the ethernet siwtch so I dont have that message?

That's the case that this WARNING message refers to. Usually it's caused by being plugged into a hub or a real Ethernet switch which hasn't learned a destination yet. This case is a bit weird, though. It looks like you have some strange packets where the destination address is the same as the sending address. It looks like they're coming from the br0 interface; you might try
