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://opendev.org/openstack/requirements/raw/branch/master/upper-constraints.txt?h=stable/ocata networking-sfc==4.0.0
```
