+ - bonding
+ - LACP bonds no longer fall back to balance-slb when negotiations fail.
+ Instead they drop traffic.
+ - The default bond_mode changed from SLB to active-backup, to protect
+ unsuspecting users from the significant risks of SLB bonds (which are
+ documented in vswitchd/INTERNALS).
+ - Load balancing can be disabled by setting the bond-rebalance-interval
+ to zero.
+ - OpenFlow:
+ - Added support for bitwise matching on TCP and UDP ports.
+ See ovs-ofctl(8) for more information.
+ - Logging to console and file will have UTC timestamp as a default for all
+ the daemons. An example of the default format is 2012-01-27T16:35:17Z.
+ ovs-appctl can be used to change the default format as before.
+ - New support for limiting the number of flows in an OpenFlow flow
+ table, with configurable policy for evicting flows upon
+ overflow. See the Flow_Table table in ovs-vswitch.conf.db(5)
+ for more information.
+ - OpenFlow:
+ - NXM flow dumps now include times elapsed toward idle and hard timeouts.
+ - ofproto-provider interface:
+ - "struct rule" has a new member "used" that ofproto implementations
+ should maintain by updating with ofproto_rule_update_used().
+ - The default MAC learning timeout has been increased from 60 seconds
+ to 300 seconds. The MAC learning timeout is now configurable.
+ - ovsdb-client:
+ - The new option --timestamp causes the "monitor" command to print
+ a timestamp with every update.
+ - CFM module CCM broadcasts can now be tagged with an 802.1p priority.
