Now packstack support using Open Virtual Network (ovn) as neutron
plugin. To enable it you need to set CONFIG_NEUTRON_L2_AGENT to ovn.
Additionally some options have been added to configure different options
and topologies:
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_BRIDGE_MAPPINGS
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_BRIDGE_IFACES
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_BRIDGES_COMPUTE
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_EXTERNAL_PHYSNET
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_TUNNEL_IF
* CONFIG_NEUTRON_OVN_TUNNEL_SUBNETS
Additionally, geneve has been included as an option to existing parameters
CONFIG_NEUTRON_ML2_TYPE_DRIVERS and CONFIG_NEUTRON_ML2_TENANT_NETWORK_TYPES.
Note that OVN networking has still some limitations, as lack of support of
for LBaaS, FWaaS and VPNaaS. Consult networking-ovn documentation for
further details.
