Hi
I have couple of quires regarding OpenVswitch:
1) Could you please confirm in OpenVswitch data flow(data path) to be @
kernel level or user level
data flow (data path) means Ethernet net packet traversing, so my doubt is:
o After the packet receiving from Ethernet driver packet will traverse in
kernel space or in user space?
o This rule is applicable for all packet or first packet?
2) Is tunneling support available per VLAN : As openVswitch support
Multiple tunneling protocols (GRE, VXLAN, IPsec, GRE,CAPWAP and VXLAN over
IPsec), so Is tunneling support per VLAN ?
3) What kind of ACL support is available in openVswitch: does
openVswitch support different of types ACL (like ...ACL (IP) ACL(UDP/TCP)
ACL(MAC) ACL (ICMP)).
4) Features like DHCP-restrict and L2-restrict can be achieved through
ACLs? Please confirm.
o DHCP-restrict : means DHCP packets will be CAPWAP packets and it will
be forwarded openVswitch which will send it to the DHCP server.( not by static
IP)
o L2-restrict: this is one of the ACL functionality. It is used to
selectively allow or disallow certain MACs per VLAN.
Thanks,
Vivek
