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