groups as flows in OVS rather than the Linux bridge device and *iptables*.

Configuring heterogeneous firewall drivers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
L2 agents can be configured to use differing firewall drivers. There is no
requirement that they all be the same. If an agent lacks a firewall driver
configuration, it will default to what is configured on its server. This also
means there is no requirement that the server has any firewall driver
configured at all, as long as the agents are configured correctly.
