There was a presentation on DON at the Vancouver summit. Here is the link:

I did not know about this tool. I also quite like the network visualization bits, though I wonder how practical that would be when one debugs very large deployments. I think it won't be a bad idea to list these tools in the networking guide or in neutron's devref, or both.

However, from what I gather there is still plenty to do in easy OVS, so perhaps rather than starting a new toolset from scratch you might build on the existing one. Personally I'd welcome its adoption into the Neutron stadium as debugging control plane/data plane issues in the neutron reference impl is becoming difficult also for expert users and developers. I'd just suggest renaming it because calling it "OVS" is just plain wrong. The neutron reference implementation and OVS are two distinct things. As concern neutron-debug, this is a tool that was developed in the early stages of the project to verify connectivity using "probes" in namespaces. These probes are simply tap interfaces associated with neutron ports. The neutron-debug tool is still used in some devstack exercises. Nevertheless, I'd rather keep building something like easyOVS and then deprecated neutron-debug rather than develop it.
