Subject: Re: [ovs-discuss] How to use ovs-controller to make interfaces related
changes to switch when it connect to the controller
Thanks Justin
You means that ovs-controller can not be used to make device configuration
related changes. It can be used only to setup flow table in the switches. But
please let me know whether other controllers like NOX, SNAC and etc , can be
used to do such changes.
