prelude: >
Prior to Newton, the neutron-openvswitch-agent used 'ovs-ofctl'
of_interface driver by default. In Newton, 'of_interface'
defaults to 'native'. This mostly eliminates spawning ovs-ofctl
and improves performance a little.
upgrade:
- To retain the old default for neutron-openvswitch-agent, use
'of_interface = ovs-ofctl' in the '[ovs]' section of your
openvswitch agent configuration file.
