19 | Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized |
| 20 | environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features | |
| 21 | expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained | |
| 22 | programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This | |
| 23 | control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is | |
| 24 | particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, | |
| 25 | which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the | |
| 26 | need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet | |
| 29 | forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, | |
| 30 | which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and | |
| 31 | translate it into packet processing rules. | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace | |
| 34 | utilities. | |
