thank you very much mr. vahric,
what about routers ? can we let openvswitch behave like a real router?
does the documentation explain all this in some more details?

any links discuss this in details will really be helpful .

Hello , 
When you create a bridge like below then you will have standard switch , it 
will behave like L2 switch , it will learn MAC and make forwarding for virtual 
servers communications . 
sudo ovs-vsctl add-br learning-switch
Default OVS switch ports are Trunk and you can also specify access ports for 
virtual servers like below and also see the MAC Table like traditional switch
   <interface type='bridge'>
 <mac address='52:54:00:a0:c1:81'/>
 <source bridge='bridge1'/>
 <vlan>
         <tag id='497'/>
       </vlan>
 <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
 <parameters interfaceid='4b25e7e1-7db2-4133-a8b8-0c050f4983d2'/>
</virtualport> 

noroot@kvm-ovs-server1:~$ sudo ovs-appctl fdb/show learning-switchport  VLAN  
MAC                Age4   497  52:54:00:6c:74:56    02   497  52:54:00:bd:d1:a7 
   0
Also you can enable/disable STP too ! 
RegardsVM

Subject:  [ovs-discuss] openvswitch noraml behaviour

hi , everyone
i'm doing a performance comparison between SDN and a traditional network using 
mininet, but unfortunately mininet doesn't emulate traditional networks 
directly.

some solutions suggests using openvswitch in the normal switch behavior by 
installing flow entry with "Normal Forwarding" , is that correct ? is there 
another way to let the switch completely behaves as A tradition switch ?
e.g ,,  Vlans ,Spanning Tree
