Is OpenStack Neutron ML2/OVS Production Ready for Large Scale
Deployments? by assafmuller
One of my personal highlights of the recent Barcelona Summit was a
session by Mirantis engineers Elena and Oleg titled “Is OpenStack
Neutron Production Ready for Large Scale Deployments?”. In the session
they outline a comprehensive control and data plane testing effort, run

VXLAN. In the session they show near line-rate speed for east/west and

recently upgraded to Fedora 25, and had to reset my environment. Here is
how I set up for development.
