Expected Dependencies on Other Projects
ALTO can benefit from data made available from BPG/LS PCEP. But the Data Store provides a level of indirection to reduce coupling. Hence, we do not list BPG/LS PCEP as dependency.
In the current release, ALTO has a feature called auto-network-map that can compute a default network map from host tracker provided by l2switch.
Compatibility with Previous Releases
N/A.
Lithium will be ALTO's first release.
Themes and Priorities
This release will focus on infrastructure and base framework build.
