Thanks for the kind advice.

Tried this:

/usr/local/src/openvswitch-2.3.2# ./configure --prefix=/usr 
--localstatedir=/var --with-linux=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
And got this:

configure: error: Linux kernel in /lib/modules/3.16.0-4-amd64/build is version 
3.16.7, but version newer than 3.14.x is not supported (please refer to the FAQ 
for advice)

How do I compile and install the kernel modules?
Thanks,

-Johnson

Hmm, thanks. All of this seems pretty normal looking. Here's another thing to 
try if you can: I think that you are probably running the kernel module that is 
part of the upstream kernel in Debian. Since this problem appears to be 
isolated to Debian, maybe somehow there is an issue in the version of the OVS 
kernel module that they picked up.
Can you try compiling and installing the module that is packaged with OVS 2.3? 
I guess either than will fix the issue (as it has been out a while and nobody 
has reported a problem) or the issue is somewhere else in the stack and it will 
continue even if you swap out OVS for the Linux bridge.
