11 This document compiles the release notes for the Colorado 3.0 release of
12 OPNFV when using Fuel as a deployment tool, with an AArch64 (only) target
19 These notes provides release information for the use of Fuel as deployment
20 tool for the AArch64 Colorado 3.0 release of OPNFV.
22 The goal of the AArch64 Colorado release and this Fuel-based deployment process
23 is to establish a lab ready platform accelerating further development
24 of the OPNFV on AArch64 infrastructure.
26 Due to early docker and nodejs support on AArch64, we will still use an
27 x86_64 Fuel Master to build and deploy an AArch64 target pool.
29 Although not currently supported, mixing x86_64 and AArch64 architectures
30 inside the target pool will be possible later.
32 Carefully follow the installation-instructions provided in *Reference 13*.
38 For AArch64 Colorado, the typical use of Fuel as an OpenStack installer is
39 supplemented with OPNFV unique components such as:
41 - `OpenDaylight <http://www.opendaylight.org/software>`_ version "Boron" [1]_ - 'http://www.opendaylight.org/software'
43 - `Open vSwitch for NFV <https://wiki.opnfv.org/ovsnfv>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/ovsnfv'
45 - `BGPVPN <http://docs.openstack.org/developer/networking-bgpvpn>`_ 'http://docs.openstack.org/developer/networking-bgpvpn/'
47 - Tacker <https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Tacker>`_ 'https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Tacker'
49 The following OPNFV plugins are not yet ported for AArch64:
51 - `ONOS <http://onosproject.org/>`_ version "Drake" - 'http://onosproject.org/'
53 - `Service function chaining <https://wiki.opnfv.org/service_function_chaining>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/service_function_chaining'
55 - `SDN distributed routing and VPN <https://wiki.opnfv.org/sdnvpn>`_ 'https://wiki.opnfv.org/sdnvpn'

61 As well as OPNFV-unique configurations of the Hardware- and Software stack.
