    1. VDX 67xx series of switches
    2. VDX 87xx series of switches

In order to use this mechnism the brocade configuration file needs to be edited with the appropriate configuration information:

% cat /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf_brocade.ini [switch] username = admin password = password address = <switch mgmt ip address> ostype = NOS

Additionally the brocade mechanism driver needs to be enabled from the ml2 config file:

% cat /etc/neutron/plugins/ml2/ml2_conf.ini
