The 16.0.0 release includes many bug fixes and new features.
The most important improvements worth mentioning are:
- Python 2 is no longer supported by Neutron, Python 3.6 and 3.7 are.
- Address scopes and subnetpools can now be shared with other tenants using
the Role Based Access Control (``RBAC``) mechanism.
- Security groups can now be set as ``stateful``. Conntrack will not be
used for any rules from such a group. This is currently supported only by
the ``iptables`` and ``iptables_hybrid`` drivers.
- Neutron API now allows tagging resources directly in the ``POST`` request.
- IGMP snooping (multicast) can now be enabled in the ``OVS`` and ``OVN``
drivers.
- A list of IPv6 addresses for a dhcp-host entry in the dnsmasq DHCP agent
driver can be configured. This solves problems with failing boot process
when only one IP address is available. See `#1861032
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1861032>`_) for details about
the issue.
- The networking-ovn mechanism driver has been merged into the neutron
repository and is now an in-tree driver for ML2.
