Global TABLE
Top-level configuration for a hardware VTEP. There must be
exactly one record in the Global
table.
Summary:
switches
set of Physical_Switch
s
Database Configuration:
managers
set of Manager
s
Common Column:
other_config
map of string-string pairs
Details:
switches
: set of Physical_Switch
s
The physical switch or switches managed by the VTEP.
When a physical switch integrates support for this VTEP
schema, which is expected to be the most common case, this
column should point to one Physical_Switch
record that
represents the switch itself. In another possible
implementation, a server or a VM presents a VTEP schema
front-end interface to one or more physical switches,
presumably communicating with those physical switches over
a proprietary protocol. In that case, this column would
point to one Physical_Switch
for each physical switch, and
the set might change over time as the front-end server
comes to represent a differing set of switches.
Database Configuration:
These columns primarily configure the database server
(ovsdb-server
), not the hardware VTEP itself.
managers
: set of Manager
s
Database clients to which the database server should
connect or to which it should listen, along with options
for how these connection should be configured. See the
Manager
table for more information.
Common Column:
The overall purpose of this column is described under Common
Column
at the beginning of this document.
