This is what I use for example:
sudo ovs-vsctl add-port sw1 gre201 -- set interface gre201 type=gre
options:remote_ip=10.0.139.144
sudo ovs-vsctl add-port sw1 gre201 -- set interface gre201 type=gre
options:remote_ip=10.0.139.234
And from "sudo ovs-vsctl show"
I set the MTU to 1420 on one end of the tunnel so that ssh sessions can run
over the tunnel. I attach LXC containers to the ovs switch sw1 and use the
GRE tunnel for ssh between containers on the two hosts.
