Open vSwitch Documentation
==========================
How the Documentation is Organised
----------------------------------
The Open vSwitch documentation is organised into multiple sections:
- :doc:`Installation guides </intro/install/index>` guide you through
installing Open vSwitch (OVS) and Open Virtual Network (OVN) on a variety of
different platforms
- :doc:`Tutorials </tutorials/index>` take you through a series of steps to
configure OVS and OVN in sandboxed environments
- :doc:`Topic guides </topics/index>` provide a high level overview of OVS and
OVN internals and operation
- :doc:`How-to guides </howto/index>` are recipes or use-cases for OVS and OVN.
They are more advanced than the tutorials.
