What I did is i created following configuration
$ ovs-vsctl show
57ba158c-7afc-45d3-a726-24914a2b2b36
Bridge "br0"
Port "br0"
Interface "br0"
type: internal
Port "eth2"
Interface "eth2"
type: internal
Port "eth1"
Interface "eth1"
type: internal
I can select any of br0,eth1,eth2 interface to connect with when I install
virtual machine in virtual box. My host contain only eth0 where as eth1 and
eth2 are added in bridge as internal ports.
By connected I means I selected eth1 as bridge interface when connecting
virtual machine with OVS .
What I want to do is enable two virtual machine to communicate using open
Vswitch. Just like they are connected as physical switch.
