Re: A new project proposal vpp

Ed, I read vbd source code, what it does isn’t so much. But honeycomb isn’t ODL project, it isn’t in ODL integration release, as Abhijt said, vbd seems not to have active development activity, so I don’t think it is a good way to new a subproject under honeycomb/.

 

I know some ideas in vbd are good, we can borrow some code in vbd to implement similar things in this newly-proposed  project. Again, the goal is to avoid unnecessary duplicate effort, maybe you has different thoughts if you consider it from sfc view angle.

Yi,

 

One thought that occurs to me is that VBD is actually honeycomb/vbd.  We may want to consider doing something under the honeycomb/* tree at ODL, especially since we are really talking about mounting and managing Honeycomb Agents.  Those agents can certainly manage VPP, but they could also manage other things as well.  

 

In the case of honeycomb/vdb the naming was around virtual bridge domain (VBD)... basically naming it after the global cross node model being translated to the particular per-node models being mounted by netconf.  It might be useful to start thinking in that direction.  What is the global cross node model we are wanting to map to the models provided by Honeycomb?

Ed, no problem, can you propose a better name?

With my fd.io TSC chair hat on, I would like to formally request that this project *not* be named 'vpp' due to potential for confusion with the fd.io vpp project.
