Ben, Thank you for the response.
I actually tried that before, but I get a "ovs-vsctl: 'add' command requires at least 4 arguments" error. This baffles me since the "add' and 'set' DB commands seem to take the same arguments. How should the command look with the fourth argument? BTW, I've been using open-vswitch for two years now for a variety of network security projects and I think it's a great application.
