Introduce the basic concept of Open vSwitch. In this slide, we talked about how Linux kernel and networking stack worked together to forward and process the network packet and also compare those Linux networking stack functionality with Open vSwitch and Openflow. At the end of this slide, we talk about the challenge to integrate the Open vSwitch with Kubernetes, what kind of the networking function we need to resolve and what is the benefit we can get from the Open Vswitch.
