Hi-

Thanks for the reply Gary..

But with respect to the Quantum_plugin_base_v2.py code, which is the base
class for the plugins, We can see the create/update/delete network methods
only in the quantum plugin. But then How about create/update/delete ports
and subnet  methods. These methods do exists in the ryu/nec/nicira plugins.

Will ovs plugin will not consider the implementation of port and subnet? If
it considers, where these are happening?

Kindly help me understand the same.

Thanks in advance
