Expected Incompatibilities with Other Projects
NetVirt is considered incompatible with applications that program the flow tables on vSwitches. This includes:
GBP
OpenDOVE
VTN
These projects have not held discussions as to how to become compatible because they each provide their own solution to the same problem.
Compatibility with Previous Releases
Removed APIs and/or Functionality
Deprecated APIs and/or Functionality
