Subject: [PATCH iproute2 v2] vxlan: Allow setting destination to unicast address.
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2013 19:17:54 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87li8pmkvh.wl%atzm@stratosphere.co.jp> (raw)
This patch allows setting VXLAN destination to unicast address.
It allows that VXLAN can be used as peer-to-peer tunnel without
multicast.
v2: use a new argument "remote" instead of "group" based by
Stephen Hemminger's comments.
