Installation¶

If possible, you should rely on packages provided by your Linux and/or OpenStack distribution:

• For Fedora or CentOS, you can install the python-networking-sfc RPM package provided by the RDO project.

If you use pip, follow these steps to install networking-sfc:

• identify the version of the networking-sfc package that matches your OpenStack version:

  • Ocata: latest 4.0.x version
  • Newton: latest 3.0.x version
  • Mitaka: latest 2.0.x version

• indicate pip to (a) install precisely this version and (b) take into account OpenStack upper constraints on package versions for dependencies (example for Ocata):

  pip install -c https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/requirements/plain/upper-constraints.txt?h=stable/ocata networking-sfc==4.0.0
