Integration of Controller with OVSDB Server


LNT-OpenDayLight
 

Hi

We would like to know how to integrate or connect between Controller and OVSDB server.

Currently we are using Toaster Step by Step sample project and we would like to access Bridge table information in this MD-SAL application. But we are not able to do establish database OVSDB Server with our provider. 

Could you please provide us any URL or sample examples available?

Regards,
LNT

LNT,

there are multiple examples in the OVSDB southbound code. An easy start is to look at the OvsdbDatachangeListener. Simply change use the Operational datastore instead of the Configuration in the Iid path and you will receive ovsdb updates.

The SouthboundIT code shows some simple methods to initiate connections to the OVSDB nodes and how to add and remove Bridges and Ports.

This wiki [1] describes some methods on how to drive the southbound via the RESTCONF.

Thanks, Sam
