# # Open vSwitch # config OPENVSWITCH tristate "Open vSwitch" depends on INET depends on !NF_CONNTRACK || \ (NF_CONNTRACK && (!NF_DEFRAG_IPV6 || NF_DEFRAG_IPV6)) select LIBCRC32C select MPLS select NET_MPLS_GSO ---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.
