---help---
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This
control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the
need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be
called openvswitch.
If unsure, say N.
config OPENVSWITCH_GRE
tristate "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support"
depends on OPENVSWITCH
depends on NET_IPGRE_DEMUX
default OPENVSWITCH
---help---
If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE
vport.
Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
If unsure, say Y.
config OPENVSWITCH_GENEVE
tristate "Open vSwitch Geneve tunneling support"
depends on OPENVSWITCH
depends on GENEVE_CORE
default OPENVSWITCH
---help---
If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create geneve vport.
Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
