Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

Great, thank you for looking into this! In the meantime I am going to try to get ovs-vswitchd working with another controller. I also have a couple more questions.

1) What is the difference between setting up a bridge and setting up a data path? I have added my switch vm's ethernet ports (which connect to other host vm's) to the data path. I thought that this was sufficient for OpenFlow, but after looking at the man page for ovs-vsctl I noticed that the arguments for controller commands take a bridge. Do I also need to create a bridge and add those ethernet ports?

2) On step 5 of http://openvswitch.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=openvswitch;a=blob_plain;f=INSTALL.OpenFlow;hb=HEAD, it says we need to set the IP address of the data path. Is this a new IP address or should it be one of the network interfaces for the switch vm?

Thanks!
Derek
