Re: openvswitch instead of quantum

 

Yes, it is a very common use case.
Nowadays, everybody who deploys Xen, KVM, or LXC without a Cloud Management
System is actually using Open vSwitch.
In that case you can program Open vSwitch using its own interface to
provide virtual networks.

When deploying Openstack, you can use Open vSwitch without Quantum by
deploying nova-network instead.
As far as I know every nova-network manager works with Open vSwitch too.
