+ ovs-vswitchd now enables OpenFlow 1.5 by default (in addition to
+ OpenFlow 1.0 to 1.4).
+ * Removed support for OpenFlow 1.6 (draft), which ONF abandoned.
+ * New action "check_pkt_larger".

+ * IPAM/MACAM:
+ - select IPAM mac_prefix in a random manner if not provided by the user

+ * Added the HA chassis group support.
+ * Added 'external' logical port support.
+ * Added Policy-based routing(PBR) support to create permit/deny/reroute
+ policies on the logical router. New table(Logical_Router_Policy) added in
