openvswitch

Production Quality, Multilayer Open Virtual Switch

openvswitch-testcontroller

Simple controller for testing OpenFlow setups

This controller enables OpenFlow switches that connect to it to act as MAC-learning Ethernet switches. It can be used for initial testing of OpenFlow networks. It is not a necessary or desirable part of a production OpenFlow deployment.

openvswitch-common

Open vSwitch common components

Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer, software-based, Ethernet virtual switch. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces and protocols (e.g. NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, SPAN, RSPAN, CLI, LACP, 802.1ag). In addition, it is designed to support distribution across multiple physical servers similar to VMware's vNetwork distributed vswitch or Cisco's Nexus 1000V. openvswitch-common provides components required by both openvswitch-switch and openvswitch-testcontroller.

openvswitch-dbg

Debug symbols for Open vSwitch packages

Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer, software-based, Ethernet virtual switch. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces and protocols (e.g. NetFlow, IPFIX, sFlow, SPAN, RSPAN, CLI, LACP, 802.1ag). In addition, it is designed to support distribution across multiple physical servers similar to VMware's vNetwork distributed vswitch or Cisco's Nexus 1000V. This package contains the debug symbols for all the other openvswitch-* packages. Install it to debug one of them or to examine a core dump produced by one of them.
