Error in lab4: ovs-controller not found

afalsafi

Per class 4 instructions, we should use this command to launch the controller:

                           ovs-controller ptcp: &

 

But when I try it, I get an error message:

root@training:~# ovs-controller ptcp: &

[1] 4894

root@training:~# No command 'ovs-controller' found, did you mean:

 Command 'ovn-controller' from package 'ovn-host' (universe)

ovs-controller: command not found

Would appreciate an answer to this question.

The only OVS command similar to this I found is "ovs-testcontroller" it also has an option ptcp

Yes, depending on the distro used, the
ovs-controller
is named now either
- ovs-testcontroller
- testcontroller
- openvswitch-testcontroller

You picked the correct alternative.
