I have two Linksys switches which run Openwrt. I want to connect them to one controller. The topology show as below.
C--S1---S2 Port A of S1 connects to C; Port B of S1 connects to S2; Port C of S2 connects to port B of S1; I set up Port A,B,C in the same sub network and non-Openflow port ( I use "outofband" mode). Both of S1 and S2 can connect to C. But, from the topology of controller, there is no connection between S1 and S2. I have to use another cable connecting one Openflow port of S1 and another Openflow port of S2. That means I have to use two cables between S1 and S2, one cable between C and S1. My switches only have 5 ports... 3 of them are used for connection. It's not good... I know trunk port maybe work. But trunk port combines two switches to be one big switches. It has some port number issue. I really don't like it. Is there any good solution for this? or this is how it works in real world?
