        The followin Mechanism Driver and Plugins are available in this repository:
        
        1. VDX ML2 Mechanism Driver (L2)
        2. VDX SVI Driver (L3)
        3. ...

        VDX ML2 Mechanism Driver:
        
        * N.B.: Please see Prerequisites section  regarding ncclient (netconf client library)
        * Supports VCS (Virtual Cluster of Switches)
        * Issues/Questions/Bugs: sharis@brocade.com
        
        
        
           1. VDX 67xx series of switches
           2. VDX 87xx series of switches
        
        ML2 plugin requires mechanism driver to support configuring of hardware switches.
        Brocade Mechanism for ML2 uses NETCONF at the backend to configure the Brocade switch.
        Currently the mechanism drivers support VLANs only.

        Configuration
        
        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
        
               [ml2]
               tenant_network_types = vlan
               type_drivers = local,flat,vlan,gre,vxlan
               mechanism_drivers = brocade
               ...
