Drivers Drivers
======= =======
TODO: Coming Soon Introduction
------------
The Neutron dynamic routing drivers are used to support different dynamic
routing protocol stacks which implement the dynamic routing functionality.
As shown in the following figure, the drivers are managed by `DRAgent <./agent-scheduler.html>`_
through a "Driver Manager" which provides consistent APIs to realize the
functionality of a dynamic routing protocol::

.. note::
In the first release, only the integration with Ryu is supported. Later release will
have support for Quagga, Bird etc. Besides, BGP is the only protocol supported now
but support for more dynamic routing protocols might come in the future.
Configuration
-------------
Driver configurations are done in a separate configuration file.
BGP Driver
~~~~~~~~~~
There are two configuration parameters related to BGP which are specified in ``bgp_dragent.ini``.
* bgp_speaker_driver, to define BGP speaker driver class. Default is Ryu
(neutron_dynamic_routing.services.bgp.agent.driver.ryu.driver.RyuBgpDriver).
* bgp_router_id, to define BGP identity (typically an IPv4 address). Default is
a unique loopback interface IP address.
Common Driver API
-----------------
Common Driver API is needed to provide a generic and consistent interface
to different drivers. Each driver need to implement the provided
`base driver class <https://git.openstack.org/cgit/openstack/neutron-dynamic-routing/tree/neutron_dynamic_routing/services/bgp/agent/driver/base.py>`_.
BGP
~~~
Following interfaces need to be implemented by a driver for realizing BGP
functionality.
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|API name |Description |
+================================+=========================================+
|add_bgp_speaker() |Add a BGP Speaker |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|delete_bgp_speaker() |Delete a BGP speaker |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|add_bgp_peer() |Add a BGP peer |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|delete_bgp_peer() |Delete a BGP peer |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|advertise_route() |Add a new prefix to advertise |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|withdraw_route() |Withdraw an advertised prefix |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|get_bgp_speaker_statistics() |Collect BGP Speaker statistics |
+--------------------------------+-----------------------------------------+
|get_bgp_peer_statistics() |Collect BGP Peer statistics |
