26 Security Considerations
27 =======================
29 * Do you have any external interfaces other than RESTCONF?
31 * BIER project needs to get topology information via BGP-LS and BIER configuration via NETCONF.
33 * Other security issues?
35 * The required security issues are provided in the RESTCONF, NETCONF and BGP-LS projects.
40 * `Link to Sonar Report <https://sonar.opendaylight.org/overview?id=72693>`_ 76.7%
41 * `Link to CSIT Jobs <https://jenkins.opendaylight.org/releng/view/bier/job/bier-csit-1node-basic-all-nitrogen/>`_
42 * Testing methodology. How extensive was it? What should be expected to work?
43 What has not been tested as much?
44 * There are unit tests and integration test available under folder "test" and system test in CSIT but the NETCONF
45 interface is not tested and will be completed in next release.
51 * Is it possible to migrate from the previous release? If so, how?
53 * Is it possible migrate from the previous release? If so, how?
54 >>>>>>> Update bier release-notes for nitrogen
56 * Migration with data from Carbon to Nitrogen is not supported.
61 * Is this release compatible with the previous release? Yes.
62 * Any API changes? Yes. Some BIER-TE APIs have been added and listed as following.
63 bier/bierman/api/src/main/yang/bier-te-config-api.yang
70 * Any configuration changes? Yes. BGP-LS should be used instead of OpenFlow to get topology information.
