SDN VPN capabilities and usage
================================

The BGPVPN feature enables creation of BGP VPNs according to the OpenStack 
BGPVPN blueprint <link>. In a nutshell, the blueprint defines a BGPVPN object 
and a number of ways how to associate it with the existing Neutron object model, 
including a unique definition of the related semantics. The BGPVPN framework 
supports a backend driver model with currently available drivers for Bagpipe, 
OpenContrail, Nuage and OpenDaylight. For the details of using the OpenStack 
BGP VPN API, please refer to the documentation at <link>. 

Currently, in OPNFV only ODL is supported as a backend for BGPVPN. The BGPVPN 
API calls are mapped onto the ODL VPN Service REST API through the BGPVPN ODL 
driver and the ODL Neutron Northbound module.
