Externally Consumable APIs

OpenStack Neutron interface provided by northbound-api bundle for openstack ODL ML2 agent/plug-in (Stable)

^{Openstack Networking Ref v2}

I*Aware Interfaces provided by neutron-spi bundle for southbound providers (Stable)
Neutron data element yang model provided by neutron-model for southbound providers (Provisional)

Expected Incompatibilities with Other Projects

None

Compatibility with Previous Releases

Removed APIs and/or Functionality

No changes

Deprecated APIs and/or Functionality

All FWaaS related interfaces and classes are being marked as deprecated in Lithium.

Changed APIs and/or Functionality

Adding Neutron data element yang model

Neutron APIs provided in Helium are unchanged in Lithium, but have been moved to the Neutron repo created in Lithium's timeframe. All projects are expected to stop using the deprecated Neutron API in controller and begin using org.opendaylight.neutron. More info in this work is provided here.

Expected Dependencies on Other Projects

Neutron Northbound will depend on

odlparent for configuration and property handling
yangtools and controller for holding Neutron Yang Model

Test Tools Requirements

OpenStack CI testing breaks into two parts:
1. stable ODL/unstable OpenStack testing is the responsibility of downstream implementing projects.
2. stable OpenStack/unstable ODL testing will be handled by ODL integration team
Other testing will intend to be using OpenDaylight Test System
