What's Ryu
==========
Ryu is an Operating System for Software Defined Networking.
Ryu is a component-based software defined networking framework.
Ryu aims to provide a logically centralized control and well defined
API that make it easy for operators to create new network management
and control applications. Currently, Ryu manages network devices by
using OpenFlow. You can say that Ryu is an OpenFlow Controller, which
support OpenFlow v1.0, v1.2, v1.3, and Nicira Extensions.
Ryu provides software components with well defined API that make it
easy for developers to create new network management and control
applications. Ryu supports various protocols for managing network
devices, such as OpenFlow, Netconf, OF-config, etc. About OpenFlow,
Ryu supports fully 1.0, 1.2, 1.3 and Nicira Extensions.
