Open vSwitch
config OPENVSWITCH tristate "Open vSwitch" depends on INET 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.
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_VXLAN tristate "Open vSwitch VXLAN tunneling support" depends on OPENVSWITCH depends on VXLAN default OPENVSWITCH ---help--- If you say Y here, then the Open vSwitch will be able create vxlan 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.
