Hi, All. I followed this manual ( http://openvswitch.org/support/config-cookbooks/userspace-tunneling/).
From the manual, I have some questions about native tunneling with DPDK option. First, after creating userspace switch (datapath_type=netdev) in the manual, how it assigns ip to bridge? In addition, why does it work ip or ifconfig command since it is an userspace switch? Second, It seems ovs has the routing tables (/lib/ovs-router.c). So after tunnelling port (in this manual, it is vxlan0 port), does it decide next destination based on routing tables? Last question, in this example, does it entirely work in an userspace which does not need context-switch or referring to kernel? Thank you in advance. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
