Hi,
Quick question.
How does Open vSwitch handles TCP checksum offloading? Does it recalculates
and rewrites the TCP checksum for every TCP packet?
I am almost sure it does, since it looks like the only explanation to have
TCP sessions working on my mininet setup. (Two hosts with checksum
offloading connected by OVS. I am using iperf to create TCP sessions).
Just asking to confirm if there is not some kind of special handling.
Thanks,
Eder.
