lxd_openvswitch-cookbook

This cookbook is still under development. It will:

Install LXD, OpenVSwitch (DONE)
Configure physical interface on OVS bridge (allow internet access)
Setup ovsdown.sh script, work around for bug
Vlan Support (create interfaces, create ovs fake bridge)
Inter-vlan routing in Linux Kernel (on Linux host)
VXLan Support (multi-host container network)
Optionally clean up unnecessary config from default lxbr0, etc
Configure LXD options like remote password, add remotes from chef search, etc.a
Thanks to for OpenVSwitch Tutorials/Blogs Scott Lowe

I'm going to use all of the above options. I'll use this recipe to setup/install Ubuntu Servers that are to act as hosts for LXD containers (in virtualization lingo hypervisors).
