We haven't implemented a Java API for the Open vSwitch database protocol. I have not heard plans to do so. > I've found a Java library called openflowj but as far as I > understand it is used to configure an existing Distributed Virtual > Switch from Citrix - correct?

It's likely that openflowj works with any OpenFlow switch, rather than just with the Citrix DVS. But I doubt that it includes OVSDB bindings. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
