[ovs-discuss] GRE over IPV6

[Prathap T]

Hi:

  Thanks for the quick response. I will take a look at the master. In the
meantime can you please confirm these?

  *OVS 2.5:*

  VxLAN over IPv6:
     Kernel datapath: supported/not supported?
     netdev datapath: supported/not supported?

GRE over IPv6:
     Kernel datapath: supported/not supported?
     netdev datapath: supported/not supported?

*OVS Master:*

  VxLAN over IPv6:
     Kernel datapath: supported/not supported?
     netdev datapath: supported/not supported?

GRE over IPv6:
     Kernel datapath: supported/not supported?
     netdev datapath: supported/not supported?

Regards,
Prathap
