Hi guys, I wanted to get started with the new CT and NAT functionality. I followed the following discussion that was posted earlier:
http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-May/070576.html I had a couple of questions: 1. Is it possible to use this new functionality w/o a complete upgrade to 4.6. That is, I don't want to do a full kernel upgrade but just update the OVS userspace+km to the latest and any thing else that needs updating. I gave this a quick try with just userspace+km from the latest master, but got errors when adding ct/nat rules (i.e. OFPBMC_BAD_MASK and OFPBAC_BAD_TYPE). So, I suspect just userspace+km updates are not sufficient. What else is needed? 2. I realize that changes will be backported to earlier kernels. How far back will these changes go? I suspect it may be even longer before distros incorporate these changes. BTW, I really appreciate these new features. They are awesome! Thank you, -Arvinder _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
