Hi, CloudStack automatically uses OVS if it is configured the way Jerry mentioned. I have created a PR for editing the docs https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-documentation/pull/133 [https://avatars3.githubusercontent.com/u/47359?s=400&v=4]<https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-documentation/pull/133> Edit OVS Plugin by davidjumani · Pull Request #133 · apache/cloudstack-documentation<https://github.com/apache/cloudstack-documentation/pull/133> Adding a note to inform users how to use OVS despite it not showing up as a network service provider github.com
