<para>In CloudStack release 4.0.0-incubating this plugin supports the Connectivity service. This service is responsible for creating Layer 2 networks supporting the networks created by Guests. In other words when an tennant creates a new network, instead of the traditional VLAN a logical network will be created by sending the appropriate calls to the Nicira NVP Controller.</para>

|
|
combination with Nicira NVP.</para>
|
|
<para>In CloudStack 4.1.0-incubating both KVM and XenServer hypervisors are
|
|
supported.</para></note>
