From 6f4df612b28ce0332cec27e19752d789b57a62d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonas Bjurel Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2015 19:37:16 +0100 Subject: Added JIRA: GENESIS-46 for voting Description: The SFC project needs a version of OVS that supports Network Service Headers (NSH). The required end-system state for the B-release will be an official OVS patch that Intel is preparing that will provide full OVS 2.4 support. This official OVS patch is not available yet. Until this official patch is available, there is a patch available in a private branch that we will have to use during the life cycle of the B release. This private OVS branch does not support all of the OVS 2.4 features. The private OVS branch can be obtained as follows: git clone -b nsh-v8 https://github.com/priteshk/ovs.git JIRA:GENESIS-46 Change-Id: Iae5a102340ba5b7a75651c7efb9256566177ed8d Signed-off-by: Jonas Bjurel --- docs/sources/system-requirements.rst | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) diff --git a/docs/sources/system-requirements.rst b/docs/sources/system-requirements.rst index 41ed541..7cb78d1 100644 --- a/docs/sources/system-requirements.rst +++ b/docs/sources/system-requirements.rst @@ -65,3 +65,14 @@ Hypervisor: Virtual forwarder: ================== +`GENESIS-46 `_: SFC support + The SFC project needs a version of OVS that supports Network Service Headers ' + (NSH).
