FYI, openvswitch now has experimental support for openflow versions > 1.0 -- Dave Scott XenServer System Architect
Begin forwarded message:
The Open vSwitch team is pleased to announce the release of Open vSwitch 1.10.0: http://openvswitch.org/releases/openvswitch-1.10.0.tar.gzThis release contains new features, performance improvements, and a significant reworking of core components. Feature highlights of 1.10.0 include: * Support for the VXLAN tunnel protocol. * Experimental support for newer versions of OpenFlow. * With the Linux datapath, packets for new flows are now queued separately on a per-port basis, so it should no longer be possible for a large number of new flows arriving on one port to prevent new flows from being processed on other ports. * Patch ports no longer require kernel support, so they now work with FreeBSD and the kernel module built into Linux 3.3 and later. * The maximum size of the MAC learning table is now configurable. * It is possible to request the OpenFlow port number with the "ofport_request" column in the Interface table. * And many others. See the full change log here: http://openvswitch.org/releases/NEWS-1.10.0Enjoy!--The Open vSwitch Team--------------------Open vSwitch is a production quality, multilayer open source virtual switch. It is designed to enable massive network automation through programmatic extension, while still supporting standard management interfaces. Open vSwitch can operate both as a soft switch running within the hypervisor, and as the control stack for switching silicon. It has been ported to multiple virtualization platforms and switching chipsets._______________________________________________discuss mailing listdiscuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxhttp://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
