NEC OpenFlow Plugin

Registered by Hiroshi Dempo

NEC OpenFlow Plugin talks to OpenFlow Controller and create/modify/delete Layer-2 logical networks on an OpenFlow enabled network. The interface between the Quantum plugin and OpenFlow Controller is RESTful API. This API is supported by two implementations: Tream Sliceable Switch (OSS) and NEC ProgrammableFlow Controller (NEC Commercial Product).

This plugin consists of two components: "Plugin" and "Agent".
* Plugin: It processes Quantum API calls and controls OpenFlow controller to handle logical networks on OpenFlow enabled network.
* agent: It runs on each compute node. It gathers a mapping beween a VIF and a switch port from local Open vSwitch and reports it to the plugin.
