+README.Debian for openvswitch-controller
+-------------------------------------
+
+* To (re)configure the controller, edit /etc/default/openvswitch-controller
+ and run "/etc/init.d/openvswitch-controller restart".
+
+* To enable OpenFlow switches to automatically discover the location
+ of the controller, you must install and configure a DHCP server.
+ The secchan(8) manpage (found in the openvswitch-switch package) gives
+ a working example configuration file for the ISC DHCP server.
