Contents of README:Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer virtual switch licensed under the open source Apache 2.0 license. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces (e.g. NetFlow, sFlow, RSPAN, ERSPAN, CLI). In addition, it is designed to support distribution across multiple physical servers similar to VMware.s vNetwork distributed vswitch or Cisco.s Nexus 1000V. Open vSwitch can operate both as a soft switch running within the hypervisor, and as the control stack for switching silicon. It has been ported to multiple virtualization platforms and switching chipsets. It is the default switch in the Xen Cloud Platform and also supports Xen, XenServer, KVM, and VirtualBox. The bulk of the code is written in platform-independent C and is easily ported to other environments. This package will build kernel modules that will be used as replacements for the bridge modules included with the stock Linux kernel. Open vSwitch also includes a kernel module for backwards compatibility if you wish to use the standard Linux bridge utils to manage it. |
