In addition to supporting a variety of features 15 expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained 16 programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This 17 control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is 18 particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, 19 which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the 20 need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. 21 22 The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet 23 forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, 24 which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and 25 translate it into packet processing rules. 26 27 See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace 28 utilities. 29 30 To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be 31 called openvswitch. 32 33 If unsure, say N. 34 35config OPENVSWITCH_GRE 36 tristate "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support" 37 depends on OPENVSWITCH 38 depends on NET_IPGRE_DEMUX 39 default OPENVSWITCH 40 ---help--- 41 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE 42 vport. 43 44 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size. 45 46 If unsure, say Y. 47 48config OPENVSWITCH_GENEVE 49 tristate "Open vSwitch Geneve tunneling support" 50 depends on OPENVSWITCH 51 depends on GENEVE_CORE 52 default OPENVSWITCH 53 ---help--- 54 If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create geneve vport. 55 56 Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size. 57
