.SH NAME
ovn\-controller \- OVN local controller
.
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBovn\-controller\fR [\fIoptions\fR]
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBovn\-controller\fR is the local controller daemon for OVN, the Open
Virtual Network. It connects up to the OVN Southbound database (see
\fBovn\-sb\fR(5)) over the OVSDB protocol, and down to the Open
vSwitch database (see \fBovs-vswitchd.conf.db\fR(5)) over the OVSDB
protocol and to \fBovs\-vswitchd\fR(8) via OpenFlow. Each hypervisor
and software gateway in an OVN deployment runs its own independent
copy of \fBovn\-controller\fR; thus, \fBovn\-controller\fR's
southbound connections are machine-local and do not run over a
physical network.
