Hello,

Dear folks,
   I would like to build and configure a linear topology using openveswitch and 4 VMs, I have installed in each VM an openveswitch and I want to build the following topology
h1---VM1---VM2----VM3----VM4---h2
To do this I did the following
In each VMs
ovs-vsctl add-br br0
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth0
ovs-vsctl add-br br1
ovs-vsctl add-port br1 eth1
Ifconfig eth0 0
Ifconfig br0 192.168.x.z
Ifconfig eth1 0
Ifconfig br0 192.168.x.y

I am going to do this in each VM
Is this correct? Did I need to add something other than the flow-rules?

Best regards,
Amer
