To configure + it interactively, install the openvswitch-switch-config package and run + the ovs-switch-setup program. Alternatively, edit + /etc/default/openvswitch-switch by hand, then start the switch manually + with "/etc/init.d/openvswitch-switch start". + +* To use the Linux kernel-based switch implementation, you will need + to build and install the Open vSwitch kernel module. To do so, install + the openvswitch-datapath-source package, then follow the instructions + given in /usr/share/doc/openvswitch-datapath-source/README.Debian + +* This package does not yet support the userspace datapath-based + switch implementation. + + -- Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com>, Mon, 11 May 2009 13:29:43 -0700 |
