[ovs-discuss] iptables with ovs

[kevin parker]

Thanks anant,
                     i went through their documentation it says they have
connected vif to bridge and applied rules on that and then connected bridge
to ovs,but i couldn't find a documentation to connect bridge to ovs.

Can some one please help me with solving this.

Thanks
kevin
