What I have done as follows: I have one Host (includes 4 VMS) 1 VM run the opendaylight controller, ODMC and ODCS The other 3 VMs each one run OVS Agent
2 VMs each one of them has 2 ports *one connected to the ODL and the other will be used for the OVS Agent
The last VM has 3 ports * one connected to the ODL and the others for OVS Agent
Is that right ? 2- I am using Virtual box, what exactly the type of interfaces that I should use for the OVS Agent when I do ./add-port.sh <VM_interface> <network_id>
What Is the type if that interface? because all the steps with no problems but I could not ping between the VMs. 3- When I add the ports here : https://wiki.opendaylight.org/view/Open_Dove:Configuring_a_basic_Overlay#Create_Ports
the Mac address I use is the ones used in the VMs, or I can use any MAC address because all of that is virtual ? Thank you in advance. BR,
Ahmed

That doesn't sound quite correct. What I've typically done is
bare metal 1: run odmc/controller and odcs on the bare metal, run odgw in a VM
(in theory I could do that in a VM, but I've not tried it yet)
bare metal 2: runs ovs and hosts guest VMs
(again in theory I could do that in a VM, but I've not tried it yet)
The point is I don't try and run OVS within the guest VM, that doesn't work.

the VM_interface is the interface of the VM on the bare metal machine - I use KVM so typically it is vnet0 or something like that

The MACs can be pretty much anything in the manual case.

Thanks Ryan,
If I have only one work station, Can I do as follows: to have 2 VMs : VM 1: runs Controller and oDCS and includes guest VM to run oDGW VM2: runs OVS and includes 3 guest VMs
I think that theoretically works
Thanks, Ahmed

It should... and it's one of the things that is on my list to try out... but I've not tried it, nor do I know how well it will perform
