I have setup a simple ovs scenario like this:

VirtualBox                 Linux in bare-metal
__________               _____________________
VM1 - eth0 | --br0p0---|-port5                    port0 |-- (br0 internal)
                 |              |             br0 bridge         |
VM2 - eth1 | --br0p1---|-port6                    port8 |-- eth0
------------------ Phy Network;
__________|              |____________________|



The VM's interfaces (eth0 and eth1) were configured through dhcp;
I have cleaned ip configuration in eth0 and set the ip
address/bradcast/netmask in br0;
VMs can ping each other, and have connectivity to the internet, and to the
Linux bare metal also.
The Linux bare metal has also connectivity.

The problem is that traffic between VM1 and VM2 goes through the eth0
interface.
And I am wondering I don't OVS makes the switching inside the host??

If I delete port eth0 from br0, or if I apply the following simple entry:
ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 "in_port=5 actions=output:6"
the VMs can't communicate with each other.

Some help would be appreciated.Thank you
