1.2. Features of the Nicira NVP Plugin

In CloudStack release 4.0.0-incubating this plugin supports the Connectivity service. This service is responsible for creating Layer 2 networks supporting the networks created by Guests. In other words when an tennant creates a new network, instead of the traditional VLAN a logical network will be created by sending the appropriate calls to the Nicira NVP Controller.
The plugin has been tested with Nicira NVP versions 2.1.0, 2.2.0 and 2.2.1

Note

In CloudStack 4.0.0-incubating only the XenServer hypervisor is supported for use in combination with Nicira NVP

Note

In CloudStack 4.0.0-incubating the UI components for this plugin are not complete, configuration is done by sending commands to the API
