430 * New upstream version
431 - First supported release of OVN. See ovn-architecture(7) for more
432 details.
433 - ovsdb-server:
434 * New "monitor_cond" "monitor_cond_update" and "update2" extensions to
435 RFC 7047.
436 - OpenFlow:
437 * OpenFlow 1.3+ bundles are now supported for group mods as well as
438 flow mods and port mods. Both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle
439 flags are supported for group mods as well as flow mods.
440 * OpenFlow 1.1+ OFPT_QUEUE_GET_CONFIG_REQUEST now supports OFPP_ANY.
441 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPMP_QUEUE_DESC is now supported.
442 * OpenFlow 1.4+ OFPT_TABLE_STATUS is now supported.
443 * New property-based packet-in message format NXT_PACKET_IN2 with support
444 for arbitrary user-provided data and for serializing flow table
445 traversal into a continuation for later resumption.
446 * New extension message NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG2 to allow OpenFlow 1.4-like
447 control over asynchronous messages in earlier versions of OpenFlow.
448 * OpenFlow 1.3 Extension 230, adding OpenFlow Bundles support, is
449 now implemented. Only flow mod and port mod messages are supported
450 in bundles.
451 * New OpenFlow extension NXM_NX_MPLS_TTL to provide access to MPLS TTL.
452 * New output option, output(port=N,max_len=M), to allow truncating a
453 packet to size M bytes when outputting to port N.
454 * New command OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD for OFPT_GROUP_MOD message that adds a
455 new group or modifies an existing groups
456 * The optional OpenFlow packet buffering feature is deprecated in
457 this release, and will be removed in the next OVS release
458 (2.7). After the change OVS always sends the 'buffer_id' as
459 0xffffffff in packet-in messages and will send an error
460 response if any other value of this field is included in
461 packet-out and flow mod sent by a controller. Controllers are
462 already expected to work properly in cases where the switch can
463 not buffer packets, so this change should not affect existing
464 users.
465 * New OpenFlow extension NXT_CT_FLUSH_ZONE to flush conntrack zones.
466 - Improved OpenFlow version compatibility for actions:
467 * New OpenFlow extension to support the "group" action in OpenFlow 1.0.
468 * OpenFlow 1.0 "enqueue" action now properly translated to OpenFlow 1.1+.
469 * OpenFlow 1.1 "mod_nw_ecn" and OpenFlow 1.1+ "mod_nw_ttl" actions now
470 properly translated to OpenFlow 1.0.
471 - ovs-ofctl:
472 * queue-get-config command now allows a queue ID to be specified.
473 * '--bundle' option can now be used with OpenFlow 1.3 and with group mods.
474 * New "bundle" command allows executing a mixture of flow and group mods
475 as a single atomic transaction.
476 * New option "--color" to produce colorized output for some commands.
477 * New option '--may-create' to use OFPGC_ADD_OR_MOD in mod-group command.
478 - IPFIX:
479 * New "sampling_port" option for "sample" action to allow sampling
480 ingress and egress tunnel metadata with IPFIX.
481 * New ovs-ofctl commands "dump-ipfix-bridge" and "dump-ipfix-flow" to
482 dump bridge IPFIX statistics and flow based IPFIX statistics.
483 * New setting other-config:virtual_obs_id to add an arbitrary string
484 to IPFIX records.
485 - Linux:
486 * New QoS type "linux-noop" that prevents Open vSwitch from trying to
487 manage QoS for a given port (useful when other software manages QoS).
488 - DPDK:
489 * New option "n_rxq" for PMD interfaces.
490 Old 'other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs' is no longer supported.
491 Not supported by vHost interfaces. For them number of rx and tx queues
492 is applied from connected virtio device.
493 * New 'other_config:pmd-rxq-affinity' field for PMD interfaces, that
494 allows to pin port's rx queues to desired cores.

503 arguments. Additional arguments can be passed via the dpdk-extra
504 entry.
505 * Add ingress policing functionality.
506 * PMD threads servicing vHost User ports can now come from the NUMA
507 node that device memory is located on if CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_VHOST_NUMA
508 is enabled in DPDK.
509 * Basic connection tracking for the userspace datapath (no ALG,
510 fragmentation or NAT support yet)
511 * Support for DPDK 16.07
512 * Optional support for DPDK pdump enabled.
513 * Jumbo frame support
514 * Remove dpdkvhostcuse port type.
515 * OVS client mode for vHost and vHost reconnect (Requires QEMU 2.7)

539 tun_ipv6_src, tun_ipv6_dst fields.
540 * Added support for IPv6 tunnels, for details checkout FAQ.
541 * Deprecated support for IPsec tunnels ports.
542 - A wrapper script, 'ovs-tcpdump', to easily port-mirror an OVS port and
543 watch with tcpdump
544 - Introduce --no-self-confinement flag that allows daemons to work with
545 sockets outside their run directory.
546 - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from SHA-1 to SHA-512 because
547 SHA-1 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to

574 using Open vSwitch 2.5 or later on XenServer 6.5 or earlier (which
575 have Python 2.4) requires first installing Python 2.7.
576 - OpenFlow:
577 * Group chaining (where one OpenFlow group triggers another) is

590 * The nonstandard GRE64 tunnel extension has been dropped.
591 - Support Multicast Listener Discovery (MLDv1 and MLDv2).
592 - Add 'symmetric_l3l4' and 'symmetric_l3l4+udp' hash functions.
593 - sFlow agent now reports tunnel and MPLS structures.
594 - New 'check-system-userspace', 'check-kmod' and 'check-kernel' Makefile
595 targets to run a new system testsuite. These tests can be run inside
596 a Vagrant box. See INSTALL.md for details
597 - Mark --syslog-target argument as deprecated. It will be removed in
598 the next OVS release.
599 - Added --user option to all daemons
600 - Add support for connection tracking through the new "ct" action
601 and "ct_state"/"ct_zone"/"ct_mark"/"ct_label" match fields. Only
602 available on Linux kernels with the connection tracking module loaded.
603 - Add experimental version of OVN. OVN, the Open Virtual Network, is a
604 system to support virtual network abstraction. OVN complements the
605 existing capabilities of OVS to add native support for virtual network
606 abstractions, such as virtual L2 and L3 overlays and security groups.

619 [ Open vSwitch team ]
620 * New upstream version
621 - Flow table modifications are now atomic, meaning that each packet
622 now sees a coherent version of the OpenFlow pipeline. For
623 example, if a controller removes all flows with a single OpenFlow
624 "flow_mod", no packet sees an intermediate version of the OpenFlow
625 pipeline where only some of the flows have been deleted.
626 - Added support for SFQ, FQ_CoDel and CoDel qdiscs.
627 - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-vsctl Please check
628 utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use.
629 - The MAC learning feature now includes per-port fairness to mitigate
630 MAC flooding attacks.
631 - New support for a "conjunctive match" OpenFlow extension, which
632 allows constructing OpenFlow matches of the form "field1 in
633 {a,b,c...} AND field2 in {d,e,f...}" and generalizations. For details,
634 see documentation for the "conjunction" action in ovs-ofctl(8).
635 - Add bash command-line completion support for ovs-appctl/ovs-dpctl/
636 ovs-ofctl/ovsdb-tool commands. Please check
637 utilities/ovs-command-compgen.INSTALL.md for how to use.
638 - The "learn" action supports a new flag "delete_learned" that causes
639 the learned flows to be deleted when the flow with the "learn" action
640 is deleted.
641 - Basic support for the Geneve tunneling protocol. It is not yet
642 possible to generate or match options. This is planned for a future
643 release. The protocol is documented at
644 http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-gross-geneve-00
645 - The OVS database now reports controller rate limiting statistics.
646 - sflow now exports information about LACP-based bonds, port names, and
647 OpenFlow port numbers, as well as datapath performance counters.
648 - ovs-dpctl functionality is now available for datapaths integrated
649 into ovs-vswitchd, via ovs-appctl. Some existing ovs-appctl
650 commands are now redundant and will be removed in a future
651 release. See ovs-vswitchd(8) for details.
652 - OpenFlow:
653 * OpenFlow 1.4 bundles are now supported for flow mods and port
654 mods. For flow mods, both 'atomic' and 'ordered' bundle flags
655 are trivially supported, as all bundled messages are executed
656 in the order they were added and all flow table modifications
657 are now atomic to the datapath. Port mods may not appear in
658 atomic bundles, as port status modifications are not atomic.
659 * IPv6 flow label and neighbor discovery fields are now modifiable.
660 * OpenFlow 1.5 extended registers are now supported.
661 * The OpenFlow 1.5 actset_output field is now supported.
662 * OpenFlow 1.5 Copy-Field action is now supported.
663 * OpenFlow 1.5 masked Set-Field action is now supported.
664 * OpenFlow 1.3+ table features requests are now supported (read-only).
665 * Nicira extension "move" actions may now be included in action sets.
666 * "resubmit" actions may now be included in action sets. The resubmit
667 is executed last, and only if the action set has no "output" or "group"
668 action.
669 * OpenFlow 1.4+ flow "importance" is now maintained in the flow table.
670 * A new Netronome extension to OpenFlow 1.5+ allows control over the
671 fields hashed for OpenFlow select groups. See "selection_method" and
672 related options in ovs-ofctl(8) for details.
673 - ovs-ofctl has a new '--bundle' option that makes the flow mod commands
674 ('add-flow', 'add-flows', 'mod-flows', 'del-flows', and 'replace-flows')
675 use an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle to operate the modifications as a single
676 atomic transaction. If any of the flow mods in a transaction fail, none
677 of them are executed. All flow mods in a bundle appear to datapath
678 lookups simultaneously.
679 - ovs-ofctl 'add-flow' and 'add-flows' commands now accept arbitrary flow
680 mods as an input by allowing the flow specification to start with an
681 explicit 'add', 'modify', 'modify_strict', 'delete', or 'delete_strict'
682 keyword. A missing keyword is treated as 'add', so this is fully
683 backwards compatible. With the new '--bundle' option all the flow mods
684 are executed as a single atomic transaction using an OpenFlow 1.4 bundle.
685 - ovs-pki: Changed message digest algorithm from MD5 to SHA-1 because
686 MD5 is no longer secure and some operating systems have started to disable
687 it in OpenSSL.
688 - ovsdb-server: New OVSDB protocol extension allows inequality tests on
689 "optional scalar" columns. See ovsdb-server(1) for details.
690 - ovs-vsctl now permits immutable columns in a new row to be modified in
691 the same transaction that creates the row.
692 - test-controller has been renamed ovs-testcontroller at request of users
693 who find it useful for testing basic OpenFlow setups. It is still not
694 a necessary or desirable part of most Open vSwitch deployments.
695 - Support for travis-ci.org based continuous integration builds has been
696 added. Build failures are reported to build@openvswitch.org. See INSTALL.md
697 file for additional details.
698 - Support for the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D-2004).
699 The implementation has been tested successfully against the Ixia Automated
700 Network Validation Library (ANVL).
701 - Stats are no longer updated on fake bond interface.
702 - Keep active bond slave selection across OVS restart.
703 - A simple wrapper script, 'ovs-docker', to integrate OVS with Docker
704 containers. If and when there is a native integration of Open vSwitch
705 with Docker, the wrapper script will be retired.
706 - Added support for DPDK Tunneling. VXLAN, GRE, and Geneve are supported
707 protocols. This is generic tunneling mechanism for userspace datapath.
708 - Support for multicast snooping (IGMPv1, IGMPv2 and IGMPv3)
709 - Support for Linux kernels up to 4.0.x
710 - The documentation now use the term 'destination' to mean one of syslog,
711 console or file for vlog logging instead of the previously used term
712 'facility'.
713 - Support for VXLAN Group Policy extension
714 - Initial support for the IETF Auto-Attach SPBM draft standard. This
715 contains rudimentary support for the LLDP protocol as needed for
716 Auto-Attach.
717 - The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports are now the IANA-assigned
718 numbers. OpenFlow is 6653 and OVSDB is 6640.
719 - Support for DPDK vHost.
720 - Support for outer UDP checksums in Geneve and VXLAN.
721 - The kernel vports with dependencies are no longer part of the overall
722 openvswitch.ko but built and loaded automatically as individual kernel
723 modules (vport-*.ko).
724 - Support for STT tunneling.
725 - Support to configure method (--syslog-method argument) that determines
726 how daemons will talk with syslog.
727 - Support for "ovs-appctl vlog/list-pattern" command that lets to query
728 logging message format for each destination.
729 - GRE64 and ipsec_gre64 tunnel protocol is deprecated and will be removed
730 from OVS v2.5 release.
731 * The openvswitch-testcontroller package is new. It reintroduces the
732 simple OpenFlow controller that was packaged with Open vSwitch prior to
733 version 2.1, at request of users who find it useful for testing basic
734 OpenFlow setups. It is still not a necessary or desirable part of most

779 - Linux kernel datapath now has an exact match cache optimizing the
780 flow matching process.
781 - Datapath flows now have partially wildcarded tranport port field
782 matches. This reduces userspace upcalls, but increases the
783 number of different masks in the datapath. The kernel datapath
784 exact match cache removes the overhead of matching the incoming
785 packets with the larger number of masks, but when paired with an
786 older kernel module, some workloads may perform worse with the
787 new userspace.
788 * Removed datapath packages because Linux 3.16 has adequate built-in
789 support. Closes: #740983.

930 * New upstream version
931 - Datapath:
932 - Support for ipv6 set action.
933 - SKB mark matching and setting.
934 - support for Linux kernels up to 3.8
935 - FreeBSD is now a supported platform, thanks to code contributions from
936 Gaetano Catalli, Ed Maste, and Giuseppe Lettieri.
937 - ovs-bugtool: New --ovs option to report only OVS related information.
938 - New %t and %T log escapes to identify the subprogram within a
939 cooperating group of processes or threads that emitted a log message.
940 The default log patterns now include this information.
941 - OpenFlow:
942 - Allow bitwise masking for SHA and THA fields in ARP, SLL and TLL
943 fields in IPv6 neighbor discovery messages, and IPv6 flow label.
944 - Adds support for writing to the metadata field for a flow.
945 - Tunneling:
946 - The tunneling code no longer assumes input and output keys are
947 symmetric. If they are not, PMTUD needs to be disabled for
948 tunneling to work. Note this only applies to flow-based keys.
949 - New support for a nonstandard form of GRE that supports a 64-bit key.
950 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery default value was set to 'disabled'.
951 This feature is deprecated and will be removed soon.
952 - Tunnel header caching removed.
953 - ovs-ofctl:
954 - Commands and actions that accept port numbers now also accept keywords
955 that represent those ports (such as LOCAL, NONE, and ALL). This is
956 also the recommended way to specify these ports, for compatibility
957 with OpenFlow 1.1 and later (which use the OpenFlow 1.0 numbers
958 for these ports for different purposes).
959 - ovs-dpctl:
960 - Support requesting the port number with the "port_no" option in
961 the "add-if" command.
962 - ovs-pki: The "online PKI" features have been removed, along with
963 the ovs-pki-cgi program that facilitated it, because of some
964 alarmist insecurity claims. We do not believe that these claims
965 are true, but because we do not know of any users for this
966 feature it seems better on balance to remove it. (The ovs-pki-cgi
967 program was not included in distribution packaging.)
968 - ovsdb-server now enforces the immutability of immutable columns. This
969 was not enforced in earlier versions due to an oversight.
970 - The following features are now deprecated. They will be removed no
971 earlier than February 2013. Please email dev@openvswitch.org with
972 concerns.
973 - Bridge compatibility.
974 - Stable bond mode.
975 - The autopath action.
976 - Interface type "null".
977 - Numeric values for reserved ports (see "ovs-ofctl" note above).
978 - Tunnel Path MTU Discovery.
979 - CAPWAP tunnel support.
980 - The data in the RARP packets can now be matched in the same way as the
981 data in ARP packets.

987 * New upstream version
988 *** Internal only release ***
989 - New FAQ. Please send updates and additions!
990 - Authors of controllers, please read the new section titled "Action
991 Reproduction" in DESIGN, which describes an Open vSwitch change in
992 behavior in corner cases that may affect some controllers.
993 - ovs-l3ping:
994 - A new test utility that can create L3 tunnel between two Open
995 vSwitches and detect connectivity issues.
996 - ovs-ofctl:
997 - New --sort and --rsort options for "dump-flows" command.
998 - "mod-port" command can now control all OpenFlow config flags.
999 - OpenFlow:
1000 - Allow general bitwise masking for IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in
1001 IPv4, IPv6, and ARP packets. (Previously, only CIDR masks
1002 were allowed.)
1003 - Allow support for arbitrary Ethernet masks. (Previously, only
1004 the multicast bit in the destination address could be individually
1005 masked.)
1006 - New field OXM_OF_METADATA, to align with OpenFlow 1.1.
1007 - The OFPST_QUEUE request now reports an error if a specified port or
1008 queue does not exist, or for requests for a specific queue on all
1009 ports, if the specified queue does not exist on any port. (Previous
1010 versions generally reported an empty set of results.)
1011 - New "flow monitor" feature to allow controllers to be notified of
1012 flow table changes as they happen.
1013 - Additional protocols are not mirrored and dropped when forward-bpdu is
1014 false. For a full list, see the ovs-vswitchd.conf.db man page.
1015 - Open vSwitch now sends RARP packets in situations where it previously
1016 sent a custom protocol, making it consistent with behavior of QEMU and
1017 VMware.
1018 - All Open vSwitch programs and log files now show timestamps in UTC,
1019 instead the local timezone, by default.

1026 - kernel modules are renamed. openvswitch_mod.ko is now
1027 openvswitch.ko and brcompat_mod.ko is now brcompat.ko.
1028 - Increased the number of NXM registers to 8.
1029 - Added ability to configure dscp setting for manager and controller
1030 connections. By default, these connections have a DSCP value of
1031 Internetwork Control (0xc0).
1032 - Added the granular link health statistics, 'cfm_health', to an
1033 interface.
1034 - OpenFlow:
1035 - Added support to mask nd_target for ICMPv6 neighbor discovery flows.
1036 - Added support for OpenFlow 1.3 port description (OFPMP_PORT_DESC)
1037 multipart messages.
1038 - ovs-ofctl:
1039 - Added the "dump-ports-desc" command to retrieve port
1040 information using the new port description multipart messages.
1041 - ovs-test:
1042 - Added support for spawning ovs-test server from the client.
1043 - Now ovs-test is able to automatically create test bridges and ports.
1044 - "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" now prints observed TCP flags in TCP flows.
1045 - Tripled flow setup performance.
1046 - The "coverage/log" command previously available through ovs-appctl
1047 has been replaced by "coverage/show". The new command replies with
1048 coverage counter values, instead of logging them.

1062 - bonding
1063 - LACP bonds no longer fall back to balance-slb when negotiations fail.
1064 Instead they drop traffic.
1065 - The default bond_mode changed from SLB to active-backup, to protect
1066 unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are
1067 documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS).
1068 - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval
1069 to zero.
1070 - OpenFlow:
1071 - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports.
1072 See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information.
1073 - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard
1074 timeouts.
1075 - Added an OpenFlow extension NXT_SET_ASYNC_CONFIG that allows
1076 controllers more precise control over which OpenFlow messages they
1077 receive asynchronously.
1078 - New "fin_timeout" action.
1079 - Added "fin_timeout" support to "learn" action.
1080 - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
1081 to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
1082 - When QoS settings for an interface do not configure a default queue
1083 (queue 0), Open vSwitch now uses a default configuration for that
1084 queue, instead of dropping all packets as in previous versions.
1085 - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for all
1086 the daemons. An example of the default format is 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z.
1087 ovs-appctl can be used to change the default format as before.
1088 - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow
1089 table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
1090 overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
1091 for more information.
1092 - New "enable-async-messages" column in the Controller table. If set to
1093 false, OpenFlow connections to the controller will initially have all
1094 asynchronous messages disabled, overriding normal OpenFlow behavior.
1095 - ofproto-provider interface:
1096 - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
1097 should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().
1098 - ovsdb-client:
1099 - The new option --timestamp causes the "monitor" command to print
1100 a timestamp with every update.
1101 - CFM module CCM broadcasts can now be tagged with an 802.1p priority.

1310 * Many thanks to Thomas Goirand <zigo@debian.org> for contributing many
1311 of the packaging fixes listed above.
1312
1313 * This version fixes most of the lintian errors described in bug
1314 #663051, but a few remain, so this upload does not close that bug. I
1315 believe that this upload should be suitable for downgrading that bug's
1316 severity.

1344 [ Open vSwitch team ]
1345 * New upstream version
1346 - Compatible with Open vSwitch kernel module included in Linux 3.3.
1347 - New "VLAN splinters" feature to work around buggy device drivers
1348 in old Linux versions. (This feature is deprecated. When
1349 broken device drivers are no longer in widespread use, we will
1350 delete this feature.) See ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5) for more
1351 information.
1352 - OpenFlow:
1353 - Added ability to match on IPv6 flow label through NXM.
1354 - Added ability to match on ECN bits in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
1355 - Added ability to match on TTL in IPv4 and IPv6 through NXM.
1356 - Added ability to modify ECN bits in IPv4.
1357 - Added ability to modify TTL in IPv4.
1358 - ovs-vswitchd:
1359 - Don't require the "normal" action to use mirrors. Traffic will
1360 now be properly mirrored for any flows, regardless of their
1361 actions.
1362 - Track packet and byte statistics sent on mirrors.
1363 - ovs-appctl:
1364 - New "fdb/flush" command to flush bridge's MAC learning table.
1365 - ovs-test:
1366 - A new distributed testing tool that allows one to diagnose performance
1367 and connectivity issues. This tool currently is not included in RH or
1368 Xen packages.
1369 - RHEL packaging now supports integration with Red Hat network scripts.
1370 - Debian: Depend on python (>= 2.7) | python-argparse instead of
1371 python-argparse to avoid pulling in python2.6

1377 [ Open vSwitch team ]
1378 * New upstream version
1379 - OpenFlow:
1380 - Added an OpenFlow extension which allows the "output" action to accept
1381 NXM fields.
1382 - Added an OpenFlow extension for flexible learning.
1383 - Bumped number of NXM registers from four to five.
1384 - ovs-appctl:
1385 - New "version" command to determine version of running daemon.
1386 - If no argument is provided for "cfm/show", displays detailed
1387 information about all interfaces with CFM enabled.
1388 - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed
1389 information about all ports with LACP enabled.
1390 - ovs-vswitchd:
1391 - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead
1392 of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the
1393 new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional
1394 tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the
1395 switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127.
1396 - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP).
1397 - Fragment handling extensions:
1398 - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4
1399 fields are made available for matching in fragments with
1400 offset 0.
1401 - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable
1402 via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl).
1403 - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set
1404 fragment handling policy.
1405 - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-key. By
1406 default it remains compatible with the old version and other
1407 standards-based implementations.
1408 - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports
1409 to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting
1410 a denial of service attack.
1411 - Added support for native VLAN tagging. A new "vlan_mode"
1412 parameter can be set for "port". Possible values: "access",
1413 "trunk", "native-tagged" and "native-untagged".
1414 - test-openflowd has been removed. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead.

1420 [ Open vSwitch team ]
1421 * New upstream version
1422 - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware
1423 switching ASICs.
1424 - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0.
1425 - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0.
1426 - OpenFlow:
1427 - New "bundle" and "bundle_load" action extensions.
1428 - Database:
1429 - Implement table unique constraints.
1430 - Support cooperative locking between callers.
1431 - ovs-dpctl:
1432 - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte
1433 counters for each port.
1434 - ovs-ofctl:
1435 - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows".
1436 - ovs-vsctl:
1437 - New "show" command to print an overview of configuration.
1438 - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions.
1439 - ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.
1440 - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the
1441 tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
1442 use ovs-vswitchd instead.
1443 - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance.
1444 - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
1445 "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
1446 "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
1447 level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
1448 at "emer" level.
1449 - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
1450 --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
1451 names will be removed after the next release, so please update
1452 your scripts.
1453 - The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and
1454 datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories.
1455 - Feature removals:
1456 - Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension.
1457 Please use the extensible match extensions instead.
1458 - Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort
1459 to simplify 802.1ag configuration.
1460 - Performance and scalability improvements
