    4. Ruijing has developed a plugin (mdgray_, 14:05:09)
    5. However, the preferred path at the moment is the built-in OVS-DPDK version. (mdgray_, 14:06:18)
    6. The scenario has not been updated to reflect this. (mdgray_, 14:06:33)
    7. The current list of scenarios for danube is defined here https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/SWREL/Danube+Scenario+Status (mdgray_, 14:08:43)
    8. There is no Fuel-OVS scenario here. There is a kvm-ovs scenario (mdgray_, 14:10:11)

  4. Priority Data Path (mdgray_, 14:28:19)
    1. Billy has implemented a patch but it was showing packet loss for packets that were prioritized. (mdgray_, 14:32:22)
    2. Billy redid the tests with P2P test deployment which did not show large packet loss but did not change the latency profile. (mdgray_, 14:34:59)
    3. Further work is required. Suggestion to split hi-priority and lo-priority traffic into separate cores to see if the latency profile improves. (mdgray_, 14:41:58)
    4. Link is currently saturated. Suggestion to down clock the CPU. (mdgray_, 14:42:16)
    5. Any suggestions for Billy, please contact him (mdgray_, 14:46:52)
