Hybrid forwarding involves filtering the incoming traffic based > on packet type. > > Thus, we must split the incoming traffic into NVGRE and non-NVGRE packets. > All non-NVGRE traffic is forwarded by the OVS extension and processed as > usual, and the NVGRE traffic is passed to NDIS to be handled by the HNV > module. > > Necessary VS project changes regarding the compiler settings will be made > in a different patch. > > More details about hybrid forwarding and the necessary NDIS 6.40 support > is provided in issue #52.
