Funny thing is in the past day I had the sa= me doubt, but after some minutes I realized FreeBSD already has everything t= hat is needed to handle a "virtualization network" by itself. Obviously what= 's missing is some kind of GUI or guided path to do it easily. At least that= 's what I thought. Today I have seen openvswitch site and understood that it has many more feat= ures, but frankly non of them actually raised any interest in me. Maybe I di= dn't understand them, but in general id like to jeep things simple, as simpl= e as possible. And simply put openvswitch seemed to me the next project aime= d to fixing a badly designed tcp stack not working good for many VMs and suc= h. And after all that's the reason why I'm using FreeBSD and not Linux, and t= hat's also the reason one of the most powerful networking appliance as pfsen= se is based on FreeBSD and not Linux. So, simply put, instead of spend time adopting something like openvswitch I'= d rather spend time writing something for FreeBSD directly (and maybe merge i= t with bhyve project)... But, hey, that's me...
