19 Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
20 environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
21 expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
22 programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This
23 control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
24 particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
25 which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the
26 need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.

28 The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
29 forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
30 which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
31 translate it into packet processing rules.
