You can configure the OVSDB server to listen for incoming connections from OVSDB controllers. A switch in factory default configuration does not listen on any local ports. The OVSDB server in ExtremeXOS listens for incoming connections from managers listed in the relevant manager tables of the OVSDB database being served. For example, if the manager table in the Hardware VTEP database has an entry for PTCP:6640, then ExtremXOS listens for connections on that port number.
When using SSL for OVSDB connections, an SSL certificate must be configured on ExtremeXOS. It is recommended that all CLI-configured OVSDB connections should be either client or server connections; client and server OVSDB connections should not be configured simultaneously.
