Quick question: I suppose that at some point, for very useful plugins, we'd like to get them as "first class citizen" in XAPI, ie doing it directly in XAPI instead of relying on a plugin, right? (but plugins are convenient to start doing it to see if it's the right approach) |
|
Yes exactly. If we need to go further than applying openflow rules and validate the approach we will need to investigate more time and move the open vswitch things directly within xapi. |
|
Additionnally, we'll likely want XAPI to re-enable the openvswitch configuration automatically when it starts, without relying on XO to detect that it has to be done and to call the plugin, after each reboot of a host. So yes, there's an identified topic regarding the SDN controller and XAPI. |

"add" was correct IIUC

Indeed, there was some mistakes and I messed up when correcting them, thanks.

This plugin allows to add and delete rules. A rule will be converted into one or more openflow rules. Once converted they are applied using ovs-vsctl command. To be able to validate the application of openflow rules the plugins allows to dump them. Signed-off-by: Guillaume <guillaume.thouvenin@vates.tech> Signed-off-by: David Morel <david.morel@vates.tech>
