In most case you can simply use the Open vSwitch module that is packaged with your distribution kernel. You just need to build the OVS without kernel support and modprobe openvswitch. If there is a feature that is not available in that kernel module, you can also use branch-2.6 from OVS git, which supports kernels up to 4.7. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
