Thanks Salvatore. I think i should use Neutron to do all the stuffs first, because Neutron is the primary network component of openstack. If it doesn't support some functions, i just direct control the openvswitch, I hope i won't break the neutron. Thanksfrom Peter

I think this is one of Neutron's basic use cases, unless I'm missing something. 2) create vlan tag and assign to tap http://openvswitch.org/support/config-cookbooks/vlan-configuration-cookbook/ ? I'm not sure I see the difference with the previous case.Are you referring to the ability of tagging a port which was not tagged before? 3) control the netflow of openvswitch Nope, this is not supported by Neutron at the moment.However, you can add an extension for it, if you wish. 4) control the QOS of openvswitch This feature is not supported by the 'reference' open source plugin (Open vSwitch, Linux Bridge). From what I gather now even the new ML2 plugin will have this capability. Approaches for QoS in open source Quantum plugin have been recently debated, but this feature is not on the roadmap for Havana. 5) does it provide an API to do the avobe things instead of command line? Neutron does *everything* through an API. I think commercial user need to above things, so we want to support those actions in pandora.
