post v1.1.0
|
|
|
|
|
------------------------
|
2011-07-28 10:19:42 -07:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
|
|
|
|
|
"off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
|
|
|
|
|
"emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
|
|
|
|
|
level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
|
|
|
|
|
at "emer" level.
|
2011-04-28 13:02:15 -07:00
|
|
|
- The new "-s" option for "ovs-dpctl show" prints packet and byte
|
|
|
|
|
counters for each port.
|
2011-07-27 14:58:10 -07:00
|
|
|
- ovs-ofctl:
|
|
|
|
|
- New "--readd" option for "replace-flows".
|
2011-05-24 13:03:58 -07:00
|
|
|
- ovs-vsctl:
|
|
|
|
|
- New "show" command to print an overview of configuration.
|
2011-06-08 09:15:38 -07:00
|
|
|
- ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.
|
2011-06-07 09:40:53 -07:00
|
|
|
- ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the
|
|
|
|
|
tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
|
|
|
|
|
use ovs-vswitchd instead.
|
2011-06-22 11:07:33 -07:00
|
|
|
- "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
|
|
|
|
|
--with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
|
|
|
|
|
names will be removed after the next release, so please update
|
|
|
|
|
your scripts.
|
2011-06-23 17:10:00 -07:00
|
|
|
- The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and
|
|
|
|
|
datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories.
|
2011-04-26 09:42:18 -07:00
|
|
|
- Feature removals:
|
|
|
|
|
- Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension.
|
|
|
|
|
(Use the extensible match extensions instead.)
|
2011-05-12 15:28:43 -07:00
|
|
|
- Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort
|
|
|
|
|
to simplify 802.1ag configuration.

|
|
|
|
- Open vSwitch now reports a single flow table, instead of
|

current implementation.

|
|
|
