OVS isn't limited to virtual switches (I realize the name suggests that). I assume you are running Linux on Octeon, which should be fine. If you are looking to bridge multiple physical interfaces, that works fine. You just need to add Ethernet devices instead of virtual interfaces. > Secondly Can virtual machines defined using emulator such bochs be > communicate with each other using open vswitch ? OVS can bridge any Ethernet-like devices, so you can plug in virtual interfaces, Ethernet, TAP, etc. --Justin _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
