NAME
       ovs-appctl - utility for configuring running Open vSwitch daemons
SYNOPSIS
       ovs-appctl [--target=target | -t target] command [arg...]
       ovs-appctl --help
       ovs-appctl --version
DESCRIPTION
       Open  vSwitch  daemons  accept  certain  commands at runtime to control
       their behavior and query their settings.  Every daemon accepts a common
       set  of  commands documented under COMMON COMMANDS below.  Some daemons
       support  additional  commands  documented  in   their   own   manpages.
       ovs-vswitchd in particular accepts a number of additional commands doc-
       umented in ovs-vswitchd(8).
       The ovs-appctl program provides a simple way to invoke these  commands.
       The  command  to  be  sent is specified on ovs-appctl's command line as
       non-option arguments.  ovs-appctl sends the command and prints the dae-
       mon's response on standard output.
