Folks,

As we know, openvswitch uses a linuxbridge based firewall to implement
security-groups on openstack. It works great but it has so many packet
hops. It also makes troubleshooting a little complicated.

OpenvSwitch does support native firewall features in flows, Does it mature
enough to implement in production and replace it with LinuxBridge based
IPtables firewall?
