1 openvswitch (1.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
5 - Added an OpenFlow extension which allows the "output" action to accept
7 - Added an OpenFlow extension for flexible learning.
8 - Bumped number of NXM registers from four to five.
10 - New "version" command to determine version of running daemon.
11 - If no argument is provided for "cfm/show", displays detailed
12 information about all interfaces with CFM enabled.
13 - If no argument is provided for "lacp/show", displays detailed
14 information about all ports with LACP enabled.
16 - The software switch now supports 255 OpenFlow tables, instead
17 of just one. By default, only table 0 is consulted, but the
18 new NXAST_RESUBMIT_TABLE action can look up in additional
19 tables. Tables 128 and above are reserved for use by the
20 switch itself; please use only tables 0 through 127.
21 - Add support for 802.1D spanning tree (STP).
22 - Fragment handling extensions:
23 - New OFPC_FRAG_NX_MATCH fragment handling mode, in which L4
24 fields are made available for matching in fragments with
26 - New NXM_NX_IP_FRAG match field for matching IP fragments (usable
27 via "ip_frag" in ovs-ofctl).
28 - New ovs-ofctl "get-frags" and "set-frags" commands to get and set
29 fragment handling policy.
30 - CAPWAP tunneling now supports an extension to transport a 64-key. By
31 default it remains compatible with the old version and other
32 standards-based implementations.
33 - Flow setups are now processed in a round-robin manner across ports
34 to prevent any single client from monopolizing the CPU and conducting
35 a denial of service attack.
36 - Added support for native VLAN tagging. A new "vlan_mode"
37 parameter can be set for "port". Possible values: "access",
38 "trunk", "native-tagged" and "native-untagged".
39 - test-openflowd has been removed. Please use ovs-vswitchd instead.

43 openvswitch (1.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
46 * New upstream version
47 - New "ofproto" abstraction layer to ease porting to hardware
49 - Packaging for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.6 and 6.0.
50 - Datapath support for Linux kernels up to 3.0.
52 - New "bundle" and "bundle_load" action extensions.
54 - Implement table unique constraints.
55 - Support cooperative locking between callers.
57 - New "-s" option for "show" command prints packet and byte
58 counters for each port.
60 - New "--readd" option for "replace-flows".
62 - New "show" command to print an overview of configuration.
63 - New "comment" command to add remark that explains intentions.
64 - ovs-brcompatd has been rewritten to fix long-standing bugs.
65 - ovs-openflowd has been renamed test-openflowd and moved into the
66 tests directory. Its presence confused too many users. Please
67 use ovs-vswitchd instead.
68 - New ovs-benchmark utility to test flow setup performance.
69 - A new log level "off" has been added. Configuring a log facility
70 "off" prevents any messages from being logged to it. Previously,
71 "emer" was effectively "off" because no messages were ever logged at
72 level "emer". Now, errors that cause a process to exit are logged
74 - "configure" option --with-l26 has been renamed --with-linux, and
75 --with-l26-source has been renamed --with-linux-source. The old
76 names will be removed after the next release, so please update
78 - The "-2.6" suffix has been dropped from the datapath/linux-2.6 and
79 datapath/linux-2.6/compat-2.6 directories.
81 - Dropped support for "tun_id_from_cookie" OpenFlow extension.
82 Please use the extensible match extensions instead.
83 - Removed the Maintenance_Point and Monitor tables in an effort
84 to simplify 802.1ag configuration.
85 - Performance and scalability improvements
