      Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)  

      Support the balance-slb bond mode from OVS. 

      Goals (aka. expected user outcomes)

      Support a loadbalanced bond mode that does not require configuration on the switch, and specifically the balance-slb mode from OVS that can be approximated with balance-xor in non-OVS bonds.

      Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):

      Anyone reviewing this Feature needs to know which deployment configurations that the Feature will apply to (or not) once it's been completed.  Describe specific needs (or indicate N/A) for each of the following deployment scenarios. For specific configurations that are out-of-scope for a given release, ensure you provide the OCPSTRAT (for the future to be supported configuration) as well.

      Deployment considerations List applicable specific needs (N/A = not applicable)
      Self-managed, managed, or both  
      Classic (standalone cluster)  
      Hosted control planes  
      Multi node, Compact (three node), or Single node (SNO), or all  
      Connected / Restricted Network  
      Architectures, e.g. x86_x64, ARM (aarch64), IBM Power (ppc64le), and IBM Z (s390x)  
      Operator compatibility  
      Backport needed (list applicable versions)  
      UI need (e.g. OpenShift Console, dynamic plugin, OCM)  
      Other (please specify)  

      Use Cases (Optional):

      • Support an often-used load balancing functionality in OVN-Kubernetes that customers migrating from legacy virtualization platforms require for an easy transition. 

        Questions to Answer (Optional):

        Out of Scope:

        Background

        Customer Considerations

        Documentation Considerations
