    26 OVS is a software switch running on a compute resource. The other three hosts can only communicate through the OVS switch. The experiment will need (instructions on how to create it are given later in this section):

     75''Although OVS is installed and initialized on the host that is meant to act as a software switch, it has not been configured yet.
    8676There are two main things that need to be configured: [[BR]]
