And I also showed you how routers connected to the open Vswitch can ping each other because traffic is sent from the open flow pipeline to the traditional pipeline.

And what I'll do is drag a cloud to the topology I'll run that on my local MAC and I'll connect ethernet zero to the cloud. So I'm gonna breach the open Vswitch switch to my physical network.
