What's new with OVS and OVN 2.8

The Open vSwitch (OVS) community recently released version 2.8.  The release includes updates to both OVS and OVN (Open Virtual Network), which provides virtual networking for OVS.  This presentation will primarily focus on updates to OVN and how OpenStack can use it as a backend for OpenStack Neutron. OVN has continued to grow and mature as an OpenStack networking solution. Recent additions include HA for L3 gateways, native DNS support, ACL (security group) logging, and support for the OpenStack metadata API.  We will also discuss current and future developments for OVS and OVN.
