    Open vSwitch (OVS) is a software OpenFlow switch that can be used in production environments. It supports OpenFlow versions 1.0 through 1.5 and has both kernel and userspace modes. Documentation and code can be found online. OVS can be used to create software-defined networks and configure OpenFlow flows by connecting the switch to an OpenFlow controller. Example workflows are provided to use OVS to create a simple switch.

    How to use OVS?

    General Instructions For GENI


    1. Download OVS 1. Start with an OVS image
    2. Install OVS – Ubuntu 12 or 14
    3. Start OVS daemons 2. Configure OVS bridges
    4. Configure OVS 3. Connect controller to
    bridges OVS bridges
    5. Connect controller to 4. Install flows and control
    OVS bridges your network
    6. Install flows and
    control your network
    Select OVS Image in GENI using
    the Jacks GUI
    • Node Type: “emulab-xen”
    • Disk Image: “Ubuntu 14 with OVS, by Niky”
    Before We Get Started
    • For this guide
    – <…> indicates variable substitution
    – […] indicates an optional parameter
    – …|… indicates a exclusive-or between two parameters
    • You must be root for any ovs-* command
    OpenFlow Version Support
    • OVS w/OpenFlow version > 1.0
    – Must use “-O OpenFlow<ver>” flag for any ovs-ofctl cmd
    – Include flag at end of command
    – Note capital O, not zero
    • Examples
    – OpenFlow 1.0, <ver> = 10, e.g. “-O OpenFlow10”
    – OpenFlow 1.1, <ver> = 11, e.g. “-O OpenFlow11”
    – OpenFlow 1.2, <ver> = 12, e.g. “-O OpenFlow12”
    – OpenFlow 1.3, <ver> = 13, e.g. “-O OpenFlow13”
    – OpenFlow 1.4, <ver> = 14, e.g. “-O OpenFlow14”
    – OpenFlow 1.5, <ver> = 15, e.g. “-O OpenFlow15”
    Creating and Viewing a Bridge
    • Add/remove a bridge
    – $ ovs-vsctl add-br <bridge-name>
    – $ ovs-vsctl del-br <bridge-name>
    • Add/remove a port to/from a bridge
    – $ ovs-vsctl add-port <bridge> <port-name>
    – $ ovs-vsctl del-port <bridge> <port-name>
    • Show general configuration
    – $ ovs-vsctl show
    • Show detailed switch configuration
    – $ ovs-ofctl show <bridge-name>
    Datapath and Controller
    • Set datapath ID (DPID)
    – $ ovs-vsctl set bridge <bridge-name> \
    other-config:datapath-id=0011223344556677
    • Set OpenFlow version
    – $ ovs-vsctl set bridge <bridge-name> \
    protocols=OpenFlow<ver>,OpenFlow<ver>,…
    • Set controller
    – $ ovs-vsctl set-controller <bridge-name> \
    tcp:<controller-ip>:<controller-port>
    – Also supports SSL (tutorial)
    Fail Modes
    • Perform learning switch if controller disconnects
    – $ ovs-vsctl set-fail-mode <bridge-name> standalone
    • Only use installed flows if controller disconnects
    – $ ovs-vsctl set-fail-mode <bridge-name> secure
    Debugging
    • View OpenFlow channel b/t controller and switch
    – $ ovs-vsctl snoop <bridge-name>
    – $ ovs-vsctl monitor <bridge-name>
    Table Operations
    • Typically done by controller, but useful when
    debugging or for testing
    • For full documentation, see ovs-ofctl man page
    • Show flow table entries
    – $ ovs-ofctl dump-flows <bridge-name>
    • Add an entry to flow table
    – $ ovs-ofctl add-flow [<priority>] [<table-id>] [<cookie>] \
    <matches> [<actions> | <instructions>]
    • Remove an entry from a flow table
    – $ ovs-ofctl del-flow [--strict] <priority> <table-id> \
    [<cookie>] <matches>
    Table Operations
    • Modify a flow table entry
    – $ ovs-ofctl mod-flow [--strict] <priority> <table-id> \
    [<cookie>] <matches> [<actions> | <instructions>]
    – Can also set cookie and other flow fields
    • Can also add, remove, modify, show groups and
    buckets
    – ovs-ofctl add-group, del-group, mod-group, dump-
    groups, insert-buckets, remove-buckets
    – Consult ovs-ofctl docs for details
    Allow Host to TX/RX Packets
    • LOCAL port of OVS is
    network interface
    – e.g. LOCAL <--> br0
    – can route into iface
    Example Workflow
    To turn an example machine into a switch:
    switch$ ovs-vsctl add-br br0
    switch$ ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth1
    switch$ ovs-vsctl add-port br0 eth2
    switch$ ovs-vsctl set-controller tcp:192.168.1.1:6653
    switch$ ifconfig br0 10.0.0.100/24 up # “host” on LOCAL port
    switch$ ping 10.0.0.2 # assume host-2 out eth2
    switch$ ping 10.0.0.1 # assume host-1 out eth1

    10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 on host-1 and host-2, respectively, will


    also be able to communicate through the OVS bridge br0 on
    the switch node
