OVSvApp Solution for ESXi VXLAN-NFV Solution
Registered by
gangadhar singh
Current VXLAN solution for provisioning ESXi networks requires vendor specific hardware and Controller, which requires additional licenses and is expensive.
The idea of this proposal is to provide a cost effective alternative solution based on Openstack’s KVM VXLAN solution using a virtual Machine (OVSvApp) for ESXi Networks. The solution provides 2^24 networks using VMware VLAN primitive APIs, which can only provide 4096 networks.
