[ovs-discuss] Fw: Protocol error when quering OVS with ovs-ofctl dump-aggregate

[Alex Nelson]

It's giving connection refused. 


controller:~> ovs-ofctl dump-aggregate tcp:10.1.5.3:6633
ovs-ofctl: connecting to tcp:10.1.5.3:6633 (Connection refused)
controller:~> ovs-ofctl dump-aggregate tcp:10.1.5.3

By default, OpenFlow runs on port 6633 and OVSDB runs on port 6634.  ovs-ofctl uses the OpenFlow protocol, so I'd expect it to use port 6633.  What happens if you run ovs-ofctl either without the port specified or using port 6633?
