Preface


Red Hat OpenStack Platform supports the OpenDaylight software-defined networking (SDN) controller, integrated into the platform. OpenDaylight is an open, flexible, and modular SDN platform that you can use in your Red Hat OpenStack environment. The Red Hat OpenDaylight solution provides a transition to SDN for both service providers and traditional data center operators who run Red Hat OpenStack Platform. It combines selected services and tested packages that help you to set up a stable OpenDaylight solution as a backend to OpenStack neutron.

This document introduces Red Hat OpenDaylight on Red Hat OpenStack Platform, configured as an OpenStack SDN controller based on the NetVirt^ application.

Note

OpenDaylight does not represent an independent Red Hat product and is only provided as an integrated part of the Red Hat OpenStack Platform.
