16:02:56 <alagalah> #topic What renderers?
16:05:13 <alagalah> #info Proposed Renderers: Openflow, NETCONF/legacy, affinity, OpenDove, ACI, OVSDB, OpFlex
16:06:27 <alagalah> #info Target reference implementation: OpenFlow
16:09:39 <alagalah> #info Gating factors: 1. Completion of GBP model 2. MD-SAL final architecture
16:12:05 <alagalah> #action: Each sub-group should look at requirements and how MD-SAL fulfills those. alagalah to contact each of the sub-group leads to kick this off.
16:16:15 <alagalah> #action alagalah readams to work on what is a feasible subset simple start.
16:18:57 <alagalah> #action alagalah readams to add OVSDB to the simple implementation
16:20:47 <s3wong> alagalah: without at least the endpoint mapper - how are you guys going to implement simple implementation of the renderer?
16:21:40 <alagalah> Statically map it for this implementation perhaps ?
16:25:08 <alagalah> Is anyone else remote having a hard time hearing or is it just me ?
16:25:39 <s3wong> alagalah: it seems to become a private conversation in the room - so I think I will have to show up at Noiro next week
16:25:58 <alagalah> We don't have great audio yet in the office
16:26:11 <alagalah> So yeah, until we get that, remote will be tough
16:26:22 <alagalah> I'll have my Jabra UFO speaker with me next week when I get back
16:31:56 <alagalah> readams: I contributed to the OVSDB project for the southbound CRUD
16:32:27 <s3wong> readams: so ovsdb is for tunnel/port/datapath setup, but Openflow would be use for equivalence of "ACL"
16:33:18 <readams> s3wong: openflow would also have actual forwarding rules as well
16:33:43 <alagalah> s3wong: readams you are both right
16:34:02 <s3wong> readams: true, if you want the reference implementation to assume every hop is an Openflow hop
16:34:05 <alagalah> s3wong: But there are OF elements to the OVSDB implementation, specifically tied to connecting neutron networks
16:34:47 <s3wong> but realistically the reference impl will likely be realized on ovs with tunneling, and therefore ovsdb would be great to be used for tunnel port setup
