The networking-cisco project's goal is to provide support for Cisco networking hardware and software in OpenStack deployments. This includes ML2 drivers and agents for neutron, as well as other pieces of software which interact with neutron to best utilise your Cisco products with OpenStack.

Releases and Version Support
We have a goal to maintain compatibility with each version of OpenStack for as long as possible, so starting with version 4.0.0, networking-cisco was compatible with both the Mitaka and Newton OpenStack releases. As such networking-cisco is branchless and stable releases that are compatible with multiple OpenStack versions will be cut from our master branch.
The latest (6.x) release of networking-cisco is compatible with the Mitaka, Newton, Ocata, Pike and Queens releases of OpenStack.
