In our Case:

We want to simulate an larger environment with multiple switches realized in
openvswitch.
Openvswitch requires a up- and downscript for each switch. So the idea was,
have a single and variable up- and downscript and feed it with parameters
(like switch to use, vlan id and so on) through the scriptparams.
