User Guide(s):
- Neutron Service User Guide is a guide for cloud admin who deploys OpenStack with OpenDaylight.
Developer Guide(s):
- Neutron Northbound is a guide for those who develops new Neutron Northbound API which OpenStack Neutron talks to.
- Neutron Service Developer Guide is a guide for those who develops new OpenStack Service Provider like netvirt, group-based-policy.

Do you have any external interfaces other than RESTCONF?

Yes. REST API for OpenStack Neutron.
- If so, how are they secure? It’s authenticated by AAA.
- What port numbers do they use? 8080 and 8181 by default. 8087 is also used by networking-odl/devstack.
Other security issues?

None.

- OpenStack CI results can be found from https://review.openstack.org/#/q/project:openstack/networking-odl
- failure rate of OpenStack CI http://grafana.openstack.org/dashboard/db/networking-odl-failure-rate
- Other OpenDaylight projects which provides OpenStack Service (e.g. netvirt, group-based-policy and vtn etc..) have their own system tests which also exercise Neutron Norhtbound. Which give coverage.
Testing methodology. How extensive was it? What should be expected to work? What hasn’t been tested as much?
- Unit test: coverage 26.5%
- Integration test(Karaf 3): coverage 75.9%
- Integration test(karaf 4): doens’t work reliably. https://git.opendaylight.org/gerrit/#/c/55128/ is pending to migrate integration test to karaf4
- OpenStack CI

Is it possible migrate from the previous release? If so, how?

No as incompatble change was introduced.

List of standrads implemented and to what extent

OpenStack Neutron API ODL Neutron Northbound REST API is based on OpenStack Neutron API and OpenStack Neutron implementation. So the two REST APIs are similar inherently, but different if necessary for technical reason. The goal of ODL Neutron Northbound project is to help OpenStack ODL driver for OpenStack Neutron (networking-odl) and ODL OpenStack Service Provider(netvirt, group-based-policy, and vtn etc...). Not re-implement OpenStack Neutron API.
