  8. Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
  9. environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
  10. expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
  11. programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This
  12. control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
  13. particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
  14. which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the
  15. need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
  16. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
  17. forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
  18. which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
  19. translate it into packet processing rules.
  20. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
  21. utilities.
  22. To compile this code as a module, choose M here: the module will be
  23. called openvswitch.
  24. If unsure, say N.
  25. config OPENVSWITCH_GRE
  26. bool "Open vSwitch GRE tunneling support"
  27. depends on INET
  28. depends on OPENVSWITCH
  29. depends on NET_IPGRE_DEMUX && !(OPENVSWITCH=y && NET_IPGRE_DEMUX=m)
  30. default y
  31. ---help---
  32. If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create GRE
  33. vport.
  34. Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
  35. If unsure, say Y.
  36. config OPENVSWITCH_VXLAN
  37. bool "Open vSwitch VXLAN tunneling support"

  40. depends on VXLAN && !(OPENVSWITCH=y && VXLAN=m)
  41. default y
  42. ---help---
  43. If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create vxlan vport.
  44. Say N to exclude this support and reduce the binary size.
  45. If unsure, say Y.
