In the dynamic landscape of modern networks, the constant evolution of virtualization and cloud computing technologies has challenged traditional network infrastructures based on static devices. This transformation has generated a growing demand for practical solutions that offer greater flexibility and efficiency. In response to this need, Software Defined Networking (SDN), a revolution in the networking industry, has emerged. At the heart of this transformation is OpenvSwitch (OVS), a powerful open source virtual switch designed to facilitate the management and programming of SDN networks.OpenvSwitch not only represents a fundamental tool in modern network management, but also symbolizes the freedom and flexibility that SDN offers network administrators and developers. In the traditional networking paradigm, configuration and management of devices such as routers and switches involve static, manual configurations.
