1 | How to Install Open vSwitch on NetBSD |
| 2 | ===================================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | On NetBSD, you might want to install requirements from pkgsrc. | |
| 5 | In that case, you need at least the following packages. | |
| 6 | ||
| 7 | automake | |
| 8 | libtool-base | |
| 9 | gmake | |
| 10 | python27 | |
| 11 | py27-xml | |
| 12 | pkg_alternatives | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | Some components (eg. ovsdbmonitor) have additional requirements. | |
| 15 | (See INSTALL) | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | Assuming you are running NetBSD/amd64 6.1.2, you can download and | |
| 18 | install pre-built binary packages as the following. | |
| 19 | (You might get some warnings about minor version mismatch. Don't care.) | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | # PKG_PATH=http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amd64/6.1.2/All/ | |
| 22 | # export PKG_PATH | |
| 23 | # pkg_add automake libtool-base gmake python27 py27-xml pkg_alternatives | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | NetBSD's /usr/bin/make is not GNU make. GNU make is installed as | |
| 26 | /usr/pkg/bin/gmake by the above mentioned 'gmake' package. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | As all executables installed with pkgsrc are placed in /usr/pkg/bin/ | |
| 29 | directory, it might be a good idea to add it to your PATH. | |
| 30 | ||
| 31 | Open vSwitch on NetBSD is currently "userspace switch" implementation | |
| 32 | in the sense described in INSTALL.userspace and PORTING. |
