我们发现有两个进程：
- ovsdb-server 维护数据库/etc/openvswitch/conf.db
- ovs-vswitchd 核心daemon
- 两者通过unix domain socket /var/run/openvswitch/db.sock 互相通信
ovs-vsctl就是通过和ovsdb-server通信，来修改数据库。
ovs-vswitchd会和ovsdb-server进行通信，来对虚拟设备做相应的修改。
所以ovs-vsctl里面的命令大多数都是对数据库的操作，因而我们必须好好的了解数据库。
如果我们cat /etc/openvswitch/conf.db，我们会发现它是json格式的。
数据库可以通过ovsdb-client dump将数据库内容打印出来

数据库表之间的关系如图所示
其中Open_vSwitch是根，结构如下：
这个表示ovs-vswitchd的配置，包含下面的几方面:
- 对bridge设备的配置，bridges指向bridge表，我们能看到的openvswitch的主要功能都是在bridge上实现的，在bridge表中详细叙述。
- 对本身的一些配置;
- other_config : stats-update-interval ：将统计信息写入数据库的间隔时间
- other_config : flow-restore-wait ：
为hot-upgrade使用的，如果设为true则不处理任何的包。一般使用的过程为，先停掉ovs-vswitchd，然后将这个值设为true，启
动ovs-vswitchd，这个时候不处理任何包，然后使用ovs-ofctl将flow table
restore到一个正确的状态，最后设置这个值为false，开始处理包 - other_config : flow-limit ：在flow table中flow entry的数量
- other_config : n-handler-threads ：用于处理新flow的线程数
- other_config : n-revalidator-threads ：用于验证flow的线程数.
- other_config : enable-statistics 是否统计
- statistics : cpu 统计cpu数量，线程
- statistics : load_average system load
- statistics : memory 总RAM，swap
- statistics : process_NAME ：with NAME replaced by a process name，统计memory size, cpu time等
- statistics : file_systems：mount point, size, used
- client request id:
也即cur_cfg和next_cfg，当一个client修改了数据库的之后，增加next_cfg，然后等待openvswitch应用这些修改，当
修改应用完毕，则cur_cfg =
next_cfg。如果我们打开/etc/openvswitch/conf.db文件，我们发现，随着我们队openvswitch的配
置，cur_cfg是不断++的 - 对SSL的配置：指向SSL表，主要配置private key, certificate(里面是public key)，已经CA的certificate
- 对ovsdb-server的配置，指向Manager表，ovs-vswitchd作为它的client，配置一下db connection的选项
在SSL表中，包含了经典的SSL connection的所有配置：
openvswitch本身的private key和public key对，其中public
key放在certificate中，并且需要CA使用自己的private
key进行签名，CA来担保这个certificate是合法的，为了验证这个CA签名，当然需要CA的public key，而CA的public
key是放在ca cert里面的，当然也需要被签名，被更高级的CA担保，或者自己担保自己。
bootstrap_ca_cert是一个boolean，如果是true，则每次启动的时候，都会向controller去拿最新的ca cert。
我们如果仔细观察ovsdb-server进程，据发现这些配置被使用了。
ovsdb-server /etc/openvswitch/conf.db -vconsole:emer -vsyslog:err
-vfile:info --remote=punix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock --private-key=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,private_key --certificate=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,certificate --bootstrap-ca-cert=db:Open_vSwitch,SSL,ca_cert --no-chdir --log-file=/var/log/openvswitch/ovsdb-server.log --pidfile=/var/run/openvswitch/ovsdb-server.pid --detach –monitor
我们还可以配置ovs-vswitchd和ovs-controller之间通过ssl相互通信，使用的是双向SSL互信
配置ovs-vswitchd，使用switch的private key(sc-privkey.pem)和public key(sc-cert.pem)，但是指定的是controller的CA Cert(cacert.pem)
cd /etc/openvswitch
sudo ovs-pki req+sign sc switch
sudo ovs-vsctl set-ssl \
/etc/openvswitch/sc-privkey.pem \
/etc/openvswitch/sc-cert.pem \
/var/lib/openvswitch/pki/controllerca/cacert.pem配置并启动controller
cd /etc/openvswitch
sudo ovs-pki req+sign ctl controllersudo ovs-controller -v pssl:6633 \
-p /etc/openvswitch/ctl-privkey.pem \
-c /etc/openvswitch/ctl-cert.pem \
-C /var/lib/openvswitch/pki/switchca/cacert.pem这里配置的是controller的的private key(ctl-privkey.pem)和public key(ctl-cert.pem)，但是指定的是switch的CA Cert(cacert.pem)
这个SSL机制有关，当建立SSL连接的时候，
当client连接Server的时候，Server会将自己的certificate发给client，将来Client会用Server的 certificate来解密Server用private key加密的信息，然而这个certificate是否合法，需要CA进行验证，由于这个certificate是Server的，当然client要使 用Server的CA cert进行验证。同理Server会向client请求Client的certificate，来解密Client的private key加密的信息，则会用Client的CA cert进行验证。
当建立ssl连接后，我们可以看到下面的样子：
mininet@mininet:~$ sudo ovs-vsctl show
902d6aa3-6a0a-4708-a286-3301c8b36430
Bridge "s1"
Controller "ssl:127.0.0.1:6633"
is_connected: true
fail_mode: secure
Port "s1"
Interface "s1"
type: internal
Port "s1-eth1"
Interface "s1-eth1"
Port "s1-eth2"
Interface "s1-eth2"
ovs_version: "2.0.1"连接controller时某一个switch连接到某个controller.
然而连接manager时某一个openvswitch daemon连接到某个manager.
Manager表配置的是ovsdb-server的，他配置了ovsdb-server使用manager_options中的配置来监听端口，等待client来连接。
其中最重要的一项就是target：
- ssl:ip[:port]：ovsdb-server会监听在ip的port上，协议为ssl
- tcp:ip[:port]：会监听在ip的port上，协议为tcp
- pssl:[port][:ip]：会监听在端口port上，协议为ssl
- ptcp:[port][:ip]：会监听在端口port上，协议为ssl
可以通过下面的命令进行设置：
ovs-vsctl set-manager…
从架构图中我们看出，ovs-vswitchd是ovsdb-server的client，两者是通过unix domain sock /var/run/openvswitch/db.sock进行通信的。
ovs-vsctl也是ovsdb-server的客户端，默认情况下，ovs-vsctl是运行在ovsdb-server同一台机器上，也是通过/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock进行通信的。
我们看ovs-vsctl有参数--db，默认是unix:file，然而也可以是tcp:ip:port或者ssl:ip:port
这就使得ovs-vsctl在另外一台机器上，也能远程控制ovsdb-server.
我们有两台机器，一台16.158.165.153，我们设置manager
sudo ovs-vsctl set-manager ptcp:8881

Open_vSwitch指向Bridge表
Bridge表无疑是最重要的表，所谓的virtual switch，多是用bridge来实现的。
Bridge有下面几项配置：
- 核心功能配置项
- name
- ports：指向Port表，
- mirrors：指向mirror表
- netflow
- sflow
- ipfix
- flood_vlans：是一些vlan id，对于这些vlan id，mac address learning是不做的，每次寻找mac都进行arp
- OpenFlow配置项：从架构图中我们可以看出，openvwitch的一个bridge可以通过openflow协议，被一个统一的controller管理的
- Controller
- flow_tables
- fail_mode:
- 一旦一个bridge连到一个openflow controller，则flow table就由controller统一管理，如果连接断了
- secure： 这个bridge会试图一直连接controller，并不自己建立flow table
- standalone：一旦bridge三次连不上controller，就自己建立和管理flow table
- datapath_id：
- Spaning Tree配置
单纯创建一个bridge 很简单
ovs-vsctl add-br helloworld，但是里面的若干配置相对比较复杂。
