From d342894c5d2f8c7df194c793ec4059656e09ca31 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stephen hemminger Date: Mon, 1 Oct 2012 12:32:35 +0000 Subject: vxlan: virtual extensible lan This is an implementation of Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network as described in draft RFC: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mahalingam-dutt-dcops-vxlan-02 The driver integrates a Virtual Tunnel Endpoint (VTEP) functionality that learns MAC to IP address mapping. This implementation has not been tested only against the Linux userspace implementation using TAP, not against other vendor's equipment. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
