 **Open Daylight Carbon Status**
 
-There are 2 options in Open Daylight Carbon to provide Virtualized Networks:
-
-1 ``Old Netvirt``: netvirt implementation used in Open Daylight Beryllium and Boron Release
-  identified by feature ``odl-ovsdb-openstack``
-
-2 ``New Netvirt``: netvirt implementation which will replace the Old Netvirt in the
-  future releases based on a more modular design. It is identified by feature
-  ``odl-netvirt-openstack``
+In Open Daylight Carbon official release, the legacy ``Old Netvirt`` identified by feature
+``odl-ovsdb-openstack`` is deprecated and no longer supported. The ``New Netvirt``
+identified by feature ``odl-netvirt-openstack`` is used.
 
 Please **NOTE** that in terms of IPv6 support in OpenDaylight, there is no difference
 between **Carbon** release and **Boron** release.
