So according to the site, http://containertutorials.com/network/ovs_docker.html, I have to do the following steps:
Install OVS (already done on my system) -
Install OVS-docker utility (already done on my system) -
Create an OVS bridge (already done on my system, except the bridge doesn't have an IP address) -
Create the docker container
Connect the container to the OVS bridge, such as
$ ovs-docker add-port ovs-br1 eth1 <container_name> --ipaddress=<ip_address_for_container>
