I was just trying to point out why you probably didn't have that file. If you want to look at the code Ben's referenced, then you'll want to look at more recent code. However, 1.2 introduced an extra abstraction layer that makes porting it to hardware easier, but the code became quite a bit more complicated. If you want something easier to hack on, then you may be better off with what you have. I don't know anything about Mininet. --Justin _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
