[ovs-discuss] OVN Questions

Hi Justin,

In the link "http://benpfaff.org/~blp/ovn-lbnl.pdf", there is a slide titled as "Test #1 - ovs-sandbox". Based on this slide, I followed these steps

1: git clone http://github.com/openvswitch/ovs.git
2: cd ovs
3a:  ./boot.sh
3b: ./configure
3c: make
4: make sandbox SANDBOXFLAGS="--ovn"

Should I have done "make sandbox", instead of "make" in step "3c" above. These slides may be old, so I may be missing some important step.

Thanks
Maurice

It doesn't look like it got started properly. Can you provide all the output starting from when you type "make sandbox"?
