You can use the "--db=tcp:" or "--db=ssl:" option with ovs-vsctl.  You'll need to \
configure OVS to listen for the connection, which you can do with with the \
"set-manager ptcp:" or "set-manager pssl:" commands in ovs-vsctl.  Note that this is \
the opposite of how connections are usually established for the management protocol; \
normally the switch connects to the controller.  However, without a controller that \
speaks OVSDB, that could be more challenging.

I've not used Floodlight, so I don't know what its scripting abilities are.  I \
believe there is a Floodlight mailing list where you could ask that.  They also may \
have some other suggestions about integrating with OVS.
