Yes, the final idea is connect them to a openflow controller and then
generate some isolated trafic among them.
But I dont know how it would be logically. For example: to connect one OvS
bridge to another OvS bridge I heard about patch port but I think it's not
working.
how can I be sure the connection really works? I don't know if Im missing
something
VM1 VM2
OvS 1
OvS 2
Bridge dp1
Bridge dp2
port "dp1"
port "dp2"
interface "dp1"
interface "dp2"
type: internal
type: internal
port "patch0"
port "patch1"
interface "patch0"
interface "patch1"
type: patch
type: patch
options: {peer="patch1"}
options: {peer="patch0"}
