Thank you
I am facing same problems and I thing the next question will be:
How to make the OVS-bridge br0
a gateway for hosts that are connected to it. For example if we have 4 hosts
connected to the OVS-bridge br0 and the bridge connect to a network, as usual,
is the following configuration correct
1
iface br1 inet static
address 192.168.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
ovs_type OVSBridge
ovs_ports eth0 eth1 eth2 eth4
allow-br0 eth0
iface eth0 inet manual
ovs_bridge br0
ovs_type OVSPort
allow-br0 eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
ovs_bridge br0
ovs_type OVSPort
allow-br0 eth2
iface eth0 inet manual
ovs_bridge br0
ovs_type OVSPort
allow-br0 eth3
iface eth1 inet manual
ovs_bridge br0
ovs_type OVSPort
> And the br0 IP as a gateway to the hosts.
