Known Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
@@ -148,75 +112,18 @@ Known Limitations, Issues and Workarounds
System Limitations
------------------
-The Euphrates 3.0 release has a few limitations:
-
-1 - The testcase sfc_two_chains_SSH_and_HTTP is disabled in this release due to
-bugs in ODL, Tacker and networking-sfc:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9221
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker/+bug/1719839
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker/+bug/1719876
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/networking-sfc/+bug/1719835
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/networking-sfc/+bug/1719883
-
-2 - The topology CLIENT_SERVER_SAME_HOST does not work due to a bug in the
-vxlan_tool. This tool is part of the ODL-SFC repo and provides support for
-non-NSH-aware SFs:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9219
-
-3 - The topologies CLIENT_SERVER_DIFFERENT_HOST_SPLIT_VNF and
-CLIENT_SERVER_SAME_HOST_SPLIT_VNF do not work because of a ODL bug:
-
-https://bugs.opendaylight.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9220
-
-
Known issues
------------
-1 - OpenDaylight SFC relies on a version of Open vSwitch (OVS) with
-Network Service Headers (NSH). A version of OVS with NSH currently
-exists, but it is in a branched version of OVS. Extensive upstream
-work has been done to merge the NSH patches into mainstream OVS,
-but the work is still not complete. More information about this
-can be found in the OPNFV SFC design document (link provided above).
-
-2 - Due to a bug in tacker:
-
-https://bugs.launchpad.net/tacker/+bug/1719841
-
-it is not possible to run the SFC scenarios in openstack environments
-which require SSL connections to public endpoints and use self-signed
-certificates
-
Workarounds
-----------
-There is a way to avoid the known issue number 2 when using xci. Once
-the deployment is successfully done, go to tacker server and modify
-line 242 of the file:
-
-/openstack/venvs/tacker-15.1.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages/keystoneauth1/session.py
-
-So that instead of having:
-
-self.verify = verify
-
-It has:
-
-self.verify = False
-
-Forcing tacker to not check the certificates
-
-
Test results
============
-The Euphrates release of SFC has undergone QA test runs
-with Functest tests on the Apex installer and xci utility
