This patchset implements l2-population RPC callbacks in OVS agents, it enables plugin to populate forwarding table following portbindings events. For now, it doesn't include ARP responder implementation which is deferred to a future patchset (As this feature isn't yet supported by OVS, it will require the use of an external responder such as ebtables) It anyway brings some improvements in tunnelling management, as agent will tear-down unecessary tunnels, and flood packets on a per-network basis rather than to all other agents. These changes should anyway have a limited risk, as tunnel management won't be affected as long as l2_population option is not set. This option must be used in conjonction with ml2 plugin using l2population mechanism driver. Implements: blueprint l2-population Change-Id: I5185eefedb0ff392bc8b99d16f810813e26ff58d
The Open vSwitch (OVS) Neutron plugin is a simple plugin to manage OVS features using a local agent running on each hypervisor. For details on how to configure and use the plugin, see: http://openvswitch.org/openstack/documentation/
