-Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer virtual switch licensed
-under the open source Apache 2.0 license. It is designed to enable
-massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still
-supporting standard management interfaces (e.g. NetFlow, sFlow, RSPAN,
-ERSPAN, CLI). In addition, it is designed to support distribution
-across multiple physical servers similar to VMware.s vNetwork distributed
-vswitch or Cisco.s Nexus 1000V.
-
-Open vSwitch can operate both as a soft switch running within the
-hypervisor, and as the control stack for switching silicon. It has been
-ported to multiple virtualization platforms and switching chipsets. It
-is the default switch in the Xen Cloud Platform and also supports Xen,
-XenServer, KVM, and VirtualBox. The bulk of the code is written in
-platform-independent C and is easily ported to other environments.
-
-NOTE: In order to remain compatible with newer versions of Slackware this
- build script will check for the existence of the Slackware provided
- openvswitch.ko kernel module. If the kernel module already exists
- on the machine then the script will skip installation of the module
- file. Open vSwitch utilities are always installed.
