Here is the list of candidate features for 17.01

Core features

  • LISP-GPE support: this would use the FD.io ONE project (https://wiki.fd.io/view/ONE) as a basis. An important difference would be the use of etcd as an alternative to ODL
  • qrouter: full layer 3 support (including NAT, Floating IP, ...) based on VPP as opposed to Linux Router.


Robustness

  • Support and automated testing of agent restart
  • Support and automated testing of VPP restart and graceful reconnect
  • Support and automated testing of driver restart
  • Automated testing of arbitrary startup order of any component


High Availability

  • etcd cluster management with or without etcd-proxy


Telemetry

  • Define a list of metrics to be exported using an interface like IPFix


Security

  • RBAC for etcd
  • TLS support for any connection
  • JSON Web Tokens support
