New Features¶

• The newovn::controller::encap_tos parameter has been added. Thisparameter controls theovn-encap-tos external id.

• The newovn::controller::ovn_ofctrl_wait_before_clear parameterhas been added to resolve an issue with dataplane downtime duringupgrades that involve OVN schema changes. It will delay delting andre-adding openflow rules by the configured time in ms to giveovn-controller time to handle db connection / reconnection that canhappen in this case. The default of 8000ms is based on upstream OVNtesting with 200k openflow rules. Since it involved a change inbehavior, the upstream OVN value defaults to unset.

New Features¶

• The newovn::controller::ovn_monitor_all parameter has been added.

Upgrade Notes¶

• Fedora is no longer supported.

Upgrade Notes¶

• Theovn::controller::enable_hw_offload prameter has been removed

New Features¶

• The newovn::controller::ovn_chassis_mac_map parameter has been added.For distributed vlan in ovn we need to set mac addresses per compute inexternal_ids:ovn-chassis-mac-mappings

Deprecation Notes¶

• Theovn::controller::enable_hw_offload parameter has been deprecated.Use the same parameter ofvswitch::ovs orvswitch::dpdk instead.

New Features¶

• Added new param for puppet to set ovn_openflow_probe_interval whichis inactivity probe interval of the OpenFlow connection to the OpenvSwitchintegration bridge, in seconds. If the value is zero, it disables the connectionkeepalive feature, by default this value is set on 60s.If the value is nonzero, then it will be forced to a value of at least 5s.

New Features¶

• This parameter sets inactive probe interval of the JSON sessionfrom ovn-controller to the OVN SB database. By default this itis 5s which not be sufficient in loaded systems or during highcontrol-plane activity spikes, leading to unnecessary reconnectionsto OVSDB server. Now it is extended by default to 1 min and it is configurable.

Known Issues¶

• The ovn northd class requires that openvswitch be installed and the service running to operate.

New Features¶

• Setup up the bridge for provider network mapping and to add appropriate interfaces to the bridge.

Known Issues¶

• Documentation for ovn_remote has been update to reflect what values are expected to be passed into it.

• The external id was hard coded to $::fqdn, it is now a parameter that defaults to $::fqdn
