Can any one guide me on the understanding the role of "LinuxOVSInterfaceDriver"

Thanking you all

Re: Nova Compute and Drivers [In reply to]

Hi-

Explaining my doubt clearly...

from the web based documentation from
http://openvswitch.org/openstack/documentation/

In the Nova Network NODE nova.conf configuration,

linuxnet_interface_driver=nova.network.linux_net.LinuxOVSInterfaceDriver

and in the Nova Compute Node nova.conf configuration,

libvirt_vif_driver=nova.virt.libvirt.vif.LibvirtOpenVswitchDriver


Both the drivers have OVS based plug and unplug functions.

What is the role of these drivers in bringing up the VMs....

Kindly help me understand this...

thanking you...
