Sure, please see another thread:

You must clean ALL ip address on eth1, and set the ip address on the
corresponding bridge device,
say 'br1', here is a example:

/usr/bin/ovs-vsctl add-br br1
/usr/bin/ovs-vsctl add-port br1 eth1

/sbin/ip addr add ${IP} dev br1
/sbin/ip link set br1 up
/sbin/ip address flush dev eth1
/sbin/ip route replace default via ${GW} # if you have gateway
corresponding  eth1
