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
