From the cookbook's info(http://openvswitch.org/?page_id=146), making vms on different host in the same vlan need to config the port of physical switch in trunk mode. Is any other way to connect OVS on different host using ssh (just as the VDE, another virtual switch on linux) or other ways, so that the trunk configuration of physical switch is unnecessary?



vm1 vm2                                           vm3 vm4
======              tunnel                  =======
   OVS         ================     OVS
-----------                                          -------------
host1           ----| physical switch|---   host2


OVS is configured to support VLANs.
