Description-en: Virtual Distributed Ethernet - Plug library
VDE is a virtual switch that can connect multiple virtual machines together,
both local and remote.
.
Components of the VDE architecture are VDE switches (virtual counterpart of
ethernet switches) and VDE cables (virtual counterpart of a crossed-cable used
to connect two switches).
.
This package contains a library that makes programs able to connect to a local
VDE switch. The simplest one is vde_plug, contained in the vde2 package.
