[ovs-discuss] How to run iperf test among VMs connected to OVS-DPDK

[Krish]

You don't need to give ip address to ovs bridge.
As you VM's are already connected through ovs-bridge, so you can simple use
iperf server on VM1 and client on another (VM2). In this case, ovs is only
working as a bridge to pass traffic from one Vm to another(as they are
already connected).
