Above links need to be updated with the eventual release URL's. This will need to be done closer to the +.. release date once the project and docs team have a solution ready and the final version of the installation +.. documents are done. + +Scenario usage overview +======================= +After installation use of the scenario requires no further action by the user. +Traffic on the private network will automatically be processed by the upgraded +DPDK datapath. + +Limitations, Issues and Workarounds +=================================== +The same limitations that apply to using Fuel DPDK-enabled interfaces also apply +when using this scenario. Including: + +* Fuel9 OVS-DPDK support works only for VLAN segmentation. +* Only interfaces running the private network (and no other network) can be + supported so each node needs a separate interface dedicated to the private network. +* The nodes with dpdk enabled interfaces will need to have hugepages + configured and some cores reserved for dpdk. + + +References +========== + +For more information on the OPNFV Colorado release, please visit +http://www.opnfv.org/colorado + |
