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

32 To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be
33 called openvswitch.
